I reckon I’m onto a product here.
A DIY motorbike heated grip pad inserted under the seat cover around the nose of the saddle, powered from light battery packs.
I started wearing baggies over my bibtights after colleagues would try and guess the outside air temperature as I strode through the office post commute…..
Great thread. But on a more serious note, some saddles or bad set up will mean you are cutting off blood flow to your chap and this could be a sign of that?
Can lead to “performance issues” further down the line too.
Yeah I used to get this, shorts/tights that were otherwise fine for the rest of me left the old chap a bit unprotected from windchill. I started a thread about it and fleecey boxers were mentioned. I started wearing baggies over the top when needed. Tbh I wear “over shorts” most of the time, pair of footy shorts is enough to stop windchill on a mild day and “protect your dignity”, got some black n white DH shorts which are warm, shrug off rain well and are quite eye catching (from a safety point of view) combined with knee warmers for cooler weather. Only go for the full Lycra look if I’m on a proper road ride

Never thought of that. Saddle mayhave slipped. Saddle is good though must have 25-30,000 miles on it.
