Wow Lynne you go girl!!! One way to get rid of your cold!

At the pool with the boys today, finally can swim while they swim!!!! Got the lane where I could watch them and checked them each 50 yards and more when I was kicking... Yeah! Not my ideal swim workout but it is a swim,  pushed hard on the 50's...

I'm at 50%. Had a great, if short, swim today simply working on changing some fundamentals of my technique to recover and avoid shoulder "niggles". I can't wait to get in the pool again.
We're gonna beat them smelly boys.

Excuse me?! Sand-bagger! How Rude! That happens to me, my pool will closed for some time later in the month, but I  have never done one of these before and I am a new swimmer, so excuse me for underestimating. I'll add on a few thousand yards if it will keep you from crying!

Hi ladies. I have a non swim related question and since this is a forum for girls, I'm hoping for a little advice. I've been searching for a new saddle. I have the Terry Damselfly and it's about as pleasant as riding on a rock. I have a century on Sunday so I'm really wanting to switch it out to spare myself some pain. In the shortness of time and availability, I have a choice of : Adamo, Profile Tri Stryke, Fizik Vitesse. The LBS says Adamo, and a lot of BTers here too, but it's very wide, even in the "nose" and I have problems with wide saddles. Plus I hear it takes awhile to acclimate so a Century sunday may not be ideal.

I don't mind the firmness overall of the Damselfly, it's just not a good saddle in general. I think a bit more padding would be nice, but not all the way to squishy. I'll likely have this one as an interim and find my permanent saddle after the century.

So for the future search, I'm thinking the Blackwell Flow or the V Flow. Anyone have experience with any of these at all? Thanks!

Excellent distracting post Kristin!

You girls just continue to talk about cycling and running and dolls and cooking and sewing and... The boys will be swimming while you do that.


(btw - 4000 yds???? nice!)

I really wouldn't advise doing a century on a saddle you've never ridden. Instead of switching the saddle right now can you use shorts with more padding (although I also don't recommend trying that for the first time on a century either)? I have a metric century coming up in June and will be trying out some different saddle/shorts combos over the next few weekends.

The only dolls we'll be talking about here are the voodoo dolls of the boys team that we'll be filling with the pins we don't need for sewing since we have men in our lives for those sorts of tedious things. And don't be jealous Walt that we're just more naturally equipped for multitasking. We understand men have underdeveloped, tiny little brains and can't keep up. But we still love you
