Sore butt

[RykardMaximus]

Hi,

don't know whether this is the place to post this but here goes,

just been out for the first time in toooo long and my butt is somewhat tender. Does anyone recommend something to put ion it and a 'quick' to get it acclimatised to riding again??

Cheers

Keep riding more, Dont spend so much time in the saddle, Every 10 Min or so stand up for awhile, pedal, and then sit. Its just the more you ride, the more it will feel better...

There are some products out there "chamois butter" that are supposed to relieve actual "saddle sores". If it's just tender there isn't much you can do. Are you wearing padded shorts?

[RykardMaximus]

Yep, we both wore padded shorts, guess we'll have to get out more.

Always happens at the beginning of the season. You'll get tougher as you ride more. However if its a matter of rashes and chamois soup, then other measures are needed.
