thanks for the input! yeah, I think the location is the issue with the time off the bike... stupid cyst is RIGHT where the saddle rubs I've been putting off getting it checked for almost 4 months... just SURE it would magically disappear the way it appeared... but I AM glad I went to get it checked and am having it removed.

Eva... LOL... yeah, the bike gods have it out for me BUT, you should see my gardens! Since I've been home quite a bit more than normal I have done a ton of work... including beginning a second patio and laying out a recycled concrete curved path that will lead to it I guess there's always a bright side
