Bicycle Riding



Recommended Posts

I started riding my bicycle again. I bought a new gel seat. Anyone have tips for making it anymore comfortable. I bought a cloud 9. The guy in the store said not to get the top of the line cause it isn;t much of a difference between that one and the one i bought.

I ride about 60 miles a week but I've never invested in a comfortable bike seat. I may have to look into this. Thanks for the reminder.

My bike saddle is not very comfortable. I have good chamois (bike shorts) that help a little . After a while I can't feel anything down there anyway. ;-)

Sorry I can't be of more help. I was looking at the "adamo road" saddle. The price is a big roadblock for me at this point. Sorry I couldn't be more help.

Here is the saddle I am looking at: http://www.ismseat.com/saddle/adamo-road

I found a few things that can give you a more comfortable ride on your bicycle. Having a wider seat, tilting the seat down in front just slightly. Building up more tolerance to your seat by strengthening your glutes.

I bought a cloud 9 seat and use padded bike shorts and that seems to do the trick

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
