RE: [RC] underwear - Roby, Diane
Howard, don't use a razor on your nether regions. I'm not Penny's friend
but I can tell you that there is nothing worse than razor bumps and sweaty
skin. Not to mention the possibilities of ingrown hairs. Not a pleasant
concept when you are only 20 miles out on a 100 mile ride.

I'm kinda late on this post but had to chime in :)...this has been a
personal quest for me (much like the great saddle quest but a heck of a
lot cheaper and much more painful for me) I have tried every undies
option under the sun and all ended rubbing me raw and/or causing major
heat rash. Yes, I live in good ole hot humid Texas. Borrowing a tip from
a long distance runner I have found no underwear and lots of vasoline
works great.(it sounded gross to me at first as well, but I was
desperate and willing to try anything) My friend also suggested for
those who are ..er..how do I put this delicately?...very hairy, might
want to shave that region as well...>blush<..
Okay Howard, go ahead and run with this one...lol

Dear Penny:
Man, what can I possibly say to top that? I'm out of ideas. All I can
add to the Vaseline thing is that, if you're using a heart monitor,
Roger says not to use petroleum based products. I've heard KY jelly is
better. You might want to try that one out. What kind of razor do you
use for the shaving part? What's the email address of your friend?
cya,
Howard (my heartbeat is going thru the roof with this thread)
