Sore buttocks - why??

Mancunianfightingcat

I did 25 miles yesterday on my Orange 5 which I've had for over a year. The seat is the original Fizik Gobi, I was wearing Endura shorts with click in proper inners which I've worn many many times before and have always found them comfortable.

So why are the inside of my arse cheeks bright red this morning???

The only thing I have changed is my stem, which I replaced with a 20mm shorter one, could this be the cause?

I'm planning on doing the Mary Townley loop in a month (47miles) so need to find what caused this before then.

I don't mind the odd humorous reply, but I am serious about this.

Thanks

a 20 mm shorter stem will easily be enough for u to weight bare through a different part of ur arse..! am sure ul get used to it, slide saddle back 20mm would make it similar to b4
