Having barely ridden all year, and with Duncfest™ (first rule of Duncfest etc) on the horizon, I have taken it upon myself to re-train me arse so that I can play out on my bike without feeling like I’ve been dispatched by Henry VIII’s headsman from the wrong end.
Anyway, 8 rides in 2 weeks and I think I am back in the saddle, so to speak. I used to be able to do it on 6, but I guess I’m getting soft in my old age.
How many rides for your bum to be in its happy place?
Normally only 2 or 3 rides back in the saddle before the "arse eggs" are avoidable. This is mountain biking though... suspect road riding would take me much longer.
120 miles off-road on a hardtail/rigid bike in the last week (having only managed 200-odd all year until now) seems to have done the trick - the blitzkrieg of conditioning 🤣
