Delicate one this, well mine is now.

Any advice for a tender botty. Its not crippling i can walk, but some of the fleshier areas are rather tender.

I wear full length tights with padding ( oh how pervy does that sound) so any advice would be appreciated.

Not yet graduated to full chamois and chamois cream yet, still in trainer pants!!!

    Assuming you are a bloke , i found switch to a seat with a big gap/hole in the middle made a world of difference. With the original seat was getting grief after just 5/6 miles - now i regularly do 25 with no probs at all :D

    try a cream called ANTIPEOL. comes in a green and white tube.Used it for my kids when they were babies, and on occasion have used it myself. Stings like a bu$$er at first but will do the trick. :oops:

    Use either Savlon or Sudocreme and slather it all over your arse, no more problems :wink:
