And Christophe - you could surely mix witch hazel into it?
Believe me even as a lass it has it's uses. Ironically is was my Assos cream that finally cleared up a patch of ezema on my leg!
As for other places, it is rather soothing on the bottom.
I have had to put the stuff in some other places, but that will remain between me and him and it wasn't for pleasureOfficers don't run, it's undignified and panics the men0 -

I just baby oil and go but should I do it? Am I missing out on some secret cycling pleasure like the padded crotch cycling shorts, clipless and drop handlebards?
rhetorical question, right!?!Rule #5 // Harden The Feck Up.
Rule #9 // If you are out riding in bad weather, it means you are a badass. Period.
Rule #12 // The correct number of bikes to own is n+1.
Rule #42 // A bike race shall never be preceded with a swim and/or followed by a run.0 -

Let me get this straight will the cream help with my achybum after a long ride or is it just for a bit of the old chaffing/ringsting type syndrome.
Right, does anyone know of a good gay sex site we can post this on? I think someone got the wrong forum :shock:

Depends really. Some apply it to their skin, some to their Chamois. I prefer the latter and just give the surface a good coating and rub it all in.- 2023 Vielo V+1

I just used a thin coating, partly because I'm (i deliberately avoided using the word tight there) and partly because I only ride 20 miles at a time. I apply directly to the skin now I know where I need it, it best to keep it somewhere warm - away from external walls :shock:Saracen Tenet 3 - 2015 - Dead - Replaced with a Hack Frame

Apply it thin but throughly particularly to the areas that take strain without.David
