Sorry about the title but I wanted to get to the point!

I'm going on a four day ride from London to Brussels - I haven't done a ride like that before (but I'm in training...)

Do I need cream and if so any recommendations

    A cream like Assos Chamois Creme will certainly reduce your risk of chaffing and saddle sores.

    Do you find this a problem on your training rides?

    Having had saddle sores in the past, they can really ruin a tour or multi-day ride, so for the sake of a £10 tub, I'd use some.

    Thanks Bot

    Nope never had any problems before at all - just concerned as it's multiple days and could get up to 80 - 100miles per day
