    I taught a two hour spin class yesterday. I used one of those gel seat covers because my little sore is still in recovery mode. it helped for about 1.5 hours. the last half hour was a little rough...

    I still haven't bought a new seat but did find a LBS that will work with me. After we took a couple of long rides in FEB, the weather got terrible so we haven't been out much. Thanks for your replies... I really want to do this ride in June without being in misery so I better get busy and find the right one! Will let you know...

    Hi, Rainebo....I get the same pain, only on the road bike, and it's horrible!! I have a new saddle on order, but until that one gets here I don't want to stop riding.... On Saturday I adjusted my saddle a bit further forward and pointed the nose a bit further down. It really was a big improvement. I was probably 1 1/2 hours into the ride before I noticed it was hurting again. oh, I also slathered on some salve I have that has arnica in it....kind of makes things numb. heh. Anyway, there's no residual soreness in my cha cha area, thank goodness, so tonight the 1 hour ride before kickboxing class should be okay.

    I also have a new handelbar on order. I hope that helps my body positioning!!

    Good luck, keep trying stuff, you'll get it!!

    Namaste,
    ~T~
