SOme of...SWEEEEET ride! I am so glad you had fun. <br /><br />SOme of it is getting used ot hte position and some of it is the seat ans your shorts. <br /><br />I changed my bike seat as well I ended up getting the cheapest Performance women's saddle ($25) and it is perfect for my butt and hoo ha. <br /><br />AS far as bike shorts I am IN LOVE (seriously my husband should be worried) with the SheBeast Triple-S shorts. They are not the best looking but BY FAR the most comfortable. <br /><br />YAY for running buddies coming back into the picture. My LA Run Buddy is moving back to Nor Cal and I am THRILLED! <br /><br />My word verification is 'tingly'! hee hee that cracks me up!RBRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14193497073393160994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1141971839070256791.post-62858759778867557962009-08-04T07:14:27.589-07:002009-08-04T07:14:27.589-07:00Remember that scene in Star Wars, the first time y...Remember that scene in Star Wars, the first time you saw it waaaay back when, when Solo pushes the lever and they made the jump to light speed? That's what I thought the first time I pointed my (then) new bike downhill. Till then I thought all bikes felt like they were coming apart at 50K (30 mph). It blew my mind when I looked at the computer and saw 80 K (50 mph) and feeling smoother than a magic carpet ride. And people wonder why I like to get out on my bike. And you will too. Get the fit done, and don't be afraid to fiddle with the saddle. My female friends tell me it makes a world of difference.<br /><br />I didn't see the AFLAC broadcast. Maybe it's on youtube. The women only thing seems just a little patronizing though. Subtracting men from a race doesn't make any difference to how you end up in your age group. If you're intimidated because someone of the other gender passes you then you don't really belong in triathlon.Keithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09364395150014197905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1141971839070256791.post-40731396026129728702009-08-04T07:04:43.752-07:002009-08-04T07:04:43.752-07:00Oh - sorry about your Padres.

We used to ride the train from here to go see games at Petco - it is such a beautiful and fun park! I hope they put a good product back on the field there soon!<br /><br />The bike sounds neat! Ever since my little pavement kiss last July I've been hesitant to get back on mine. Maybe one day soon....Glenn Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05119271602749821767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1141971839070256791.post-3497891827875335562009-08-03T23:22:01.415-07:002009-08-03T23:22:01.415-07:00You need to find some comfy bottoms to wear so you...You need to find some comfy bottoms to wear so your Hoo-Ha doesn't hurt when you ride.Jo Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06531744273293564813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1141971839070256791.post-69427218469808080082009-08-03T21:50:58.620-07:002009-08-03T21:50:58.620-07:00I'm so jealous of you and TNB!

It almost seemed too padded and I felt like I was rolling over it left to right. That said, I would highly recommend getting a proper bike fit done. SO WORTH IT, especially with the different positioning. A few inches can make a huge difference in comfort for your hands, shoulders, knees, bum, everything. Just a thought if you haven't done it already. Then you'll need to get clips... then watch how fast you'll go ;)Mel-2nd Chanceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15040126521403230005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1141971839070256791.post-16343124872191503412009-08-03T15:15:10.517-07:002009-08-03T15:15:10.517-07:00I quit running at the bay later in the day during ...I quit running at the bay later in the day during this time of year due to the major influx of tourists. I had my arm hit (and bruised)by a handle bar of a bike a tourist was on. She was passing me and didn't ring her bell or announce "bike on the left" like normal people do. <br /><br />Your bike sounds quite wonderful. You know they do sell seats JUST for women. ;) Easy on the hoo-haw, or so I've heard.<br /><br />Michael REALLY wants me to start riding bikes again. I'm not quite there yet. I told him to go for it if that's what he wants to do. I'd rather get back into swimming first, then I might consider the bike. It's an investment I'm not quite ready for. The desire isn't there...YET. I'm sure I'll eventually come around. <br /><br />What? The Padres actually won?Irenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03163803961338323135noreply@blogger.com
