joshnii 2 Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 Last night I went out for a bit of a bike ride. Was going quite fast but suddenly hit some kind of hole in the ground. Result? I smashed into the bike seat. You know, the bit that's usually sitting on the bike. Wasn't meant to hit the seat with such force. I was in agony could hardly walk and this morning I'm not feeling much better. Thinking I might even need to see a doctor about this, though really really really want to not do that! ã„ãŸã„ï¼ Link to post Share on other sites

JA2340 16 Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 Had to read this to find out where the "underside" is. I'd have called it my "backside" or "bum". Underside is usually applied to inanimate objects, eg "the underside of the aeroplane is painted a different colour to the topside." Link to post Share on other sites

Yuki's Passion 1 Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Get some cycling shorts with a chamois padding - helps in many ways. They even have mtn bike shorts with built in padding so you dont have to walk around in spandex shorts Link to post Share on other sites
joshnii 2 Posted October 5, 2010 Author Share Posted October 5, 2010 Good idea. Didn't go to a doctor but.... still hurting. Slowly getting less. I won't be in a rush to do that again! Link to post Share on other sites
Ezorisu 0 Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Also, if you have one of those newer "anatomically designed" seats with the cutout or depression in the middle, you are more likely to receive the kind of gooch-bruising you got. Link to post Share on other sites
joshnii 2 Posted October 8, 2010 Author Share Posted October 8, 2010 Yes it is one of them. Feeling better now but boy did that hurt! Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 isn't that to relieve pressure on your prostate gland? Link to post Share on other sites
Ezorisu 0 Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 It's supposed to relieve pressure on a nerve bundle that runs through the taint on the way from the spine to the "junk" - specifically, to prevent post-ride numbness or functional deficit in your junk. I'd seriously hate to see a bike seat that came anywhere near my prostate! Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 your prostrate isn't that far inside and is affected by prolonged bike riding as is your urethra and main artery into your bits n pieces Link to post Share on other sites

I hear "prostate" and I think about what is done during a "prostate exam" or the naughty things involving the "P-spot" (search the internet if there is any question as to what this is), so to imagine a bike seat going to those places... The horror... Link to post Share on other sites
