    Thanks for the update mama - and I'm glad to hear you're going to be "back on the bike" - can we use that in place of "right as rain"?! LOL...anyway, good news and thanks for keeping us updated!
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"

    UGH! OK.... clearly it's time for me to go to the doc...I'm going on three months with something similar that I have been dealing with...I assume it's an infected hair follicle, especially since it has ruptured a few times and then is almost flat for a while... but over time the bump is back and painful... riding definitely makes it worse. Mine is right where the leg creases as well... my panties irritate it when it's sore... sigh... OK. You've enlightened me. Time to get to the doc.
    There is a fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness".

    I've got one "up there", too, but it's part of a looooong varicose vein that goes all the way down to my foot. Sometimes it's NOT FUN AT ALL, but the whole dang vein has to be taken care of at once. Not financially ready for that yet. So I wear UnderArmor compression shorts almost every day, along with my compression stockings, and that keeps it down to a dull roar.

    Ok, so now I am wondering if Rudy is ok. Are you ok, Rudy?

    This is kind of gross, but Bikerchick68, the pattern of your lumpy reminds me of the pattern of how my hemorrhoid does its thing. The varicose veins on my legs can be like that, too. Hm, given my hereditary tendency towards weak veins, I guess it's good to know what to look out for.
