Comments on: So Far, So Good! http://www.adamknits.com/2007/06/12/so-far-so-good/ The incoherent ramblings of a knitting, yarn dyeing grad student, who also happens to be a guy. You got a problem with that?

Why do bike manufacturers insist on installing the hardest seats they can? Is it just so you have to spend more $$$ on a more comfortable seat. I've even seen bikes with a seat that has a chair-like back. Talk about easy riding! </p> <p>Keep up the peddling. Not only are you helping to save the environment but also getting fit in the process (biking is more fun than running if you ask me).</p> I have an air ride bike seat on my bike and it helps immensely.

Keep up the peddling. Not only are you helping to save the environment but also getting fit in the process (biking is more fun than running if you ask me).

I'm jealous--I'd do it if I just lived inside the city limits! The saddle soreness will get better as you continue to ride, but it'll take a week or 2. Several people have already mentioned the importance of padded cycling shorts, but a good seat can make a lot of difference as well. I got my current for $20.00 at Cycle Cave, and it's the best saddle I've ever ridden on. Email or call me sometime, and I'll give you details on how to find it, if you're interested.</p> Nice job with the cycling to work! I’m jealous–I’d do it if I just lived inside the city limits!

I have 13 km to and from work, and even without padded shorts its a sweet little ride. But if the butt is sore, then I sorely (he he he) recommend padded bike shorts. They are really nice (and made me survive a + 100 km bike ride) ;-)</p> <p>Love the hat... wonder if my own handspun will be good for it?</p> How far do you ride?
