Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

I don't care how cute the name is, at $22 for 4oz I'm certainly not buying it.

Z's got a great sense of humor. Haven't tried it, but it's nearly amusing enough for me to give it a shot.

But it is HIGH VISCOSITY! How can you not buy it?



That's the secret of marketing: find one compelling feature and market the hell out of it. It doesn't matter if it is not the best feature, or even, say, accurate, but if it looks good and no one else is using the same angle to sell their stuff, market the **** out of it.

I find that it keeps me laterally stiff but vertically compliant. (Maybe I shouldn't rub it in so vigorously.)

The pink t-shirt (presumably for the male cyclist's female friend) is priceless.

Would that basically be the same stuff as Bag Balm at $8.00 for 10 oz.

Probably more like Chamois Butt'r at $13 for 8oz but Bag Balm works well too.
