    Great job, Schnitzle! We've all been there and relive it with your post. I think I was more proud of my first 10 miles than I was with my first 50! It's quite an accomplishment and something you should be very proud of. Congratulations!

    Thanks Bike Chick I am looking at roads differently now, trying to decide what I can tackle. It's been an eye opener.

    Another "way to go"!

    One year ago, I was barely riding about 10 miles. Now I can do 50+, and ride up a mountain.

    I would check more than shorts for your pain though- could be how you fit on your bike, saddle position etc. Don't resign yourself to being uncomfortable. That said, bike shorts are well worth it.
