I just did my first endurance ride this weekend, (it went
great, by the way), but I got rubbed quite alot in the knee area where it meets
the saddle. Its more like almost under the knee. My friend said it was pretty
typical and she still gets them. I was wearing decent breeches but was wondering
if any of you have any tricks to help not getting these. It looks like I took
some skin off there. Does anyone wrap up under their breeches or is this just a
battle wound I will proudly bear? Its quite amazing how much more sore you are
from competition miles vs. training miles even though you have trained some
long, hard miles. I was amazed at how sore my body was the next day! You do get
over this, right? Are most of you *always* sore after a competitive ride?
Thanks!!
