I'm pretty sure men complain about this more than women, but it looks like we are suffering the most! :oops:

Or, the number of females who cycle is less than males.

Best not to go there Rhys, women are definitely tougher! You can argue all you like and then they'll mention "Man Flu" before delivering (excuse the pun) the child birth argument!.....Game over!

So Jo, we need you on "The Wall", "Winter is Coming"

I've measured my clearance and I feel confident that from that viewpoint, I could ride on virtually any saddle.

Hogg's comments about ride position are probably correct.

As for butt soreness, it seems to only occur when I ride too slow. When the power is appropriately being pumped thru the pedals the body kinda floats, putting less weight on your butt
