I need some new shorts...

Ouch, Ouch and Ouch!

I wore my other pair of cycling shorts tonight whilst on the turbo trainer in the garage - not at all comfortable!

Not sure it was the film I was watching that caused me to feel the saddle more (Minority Report) due to it not focussing my attention enough or because the shorts feel like they have chuff all padding.  I have to say I never had that problem with the Matrix, but then again I was wearing the other shorts...

No distance data for tonight's ride as my speedometer is attached to my front wheel, which is stationary, and my Garmin calcs speed and distance from the gps on it (I think) as the cadence sensor is working (I'm not to fussed about cadence at the moment) but no speed/distance readout :(  I did keep pedalling throught the film (about 2hrs 15) so not too bad.

I've got my final long run this coming weekend (probably Friday) as the marathon is only 3 weeks away, so depending on how I feel afterwards I'll aim to get back in the saddle again on Monday.

If anyone knows any tried and tested makes of short (normal or bib) which have a good padding, then please, don't be shy...

Cheers

Andrew
