I really don't think a cycling obsession could ever reach an unhealthy level.

Anyway, not many serious answers; I guess this isn't an issue for most of those on this list, who very likely never ride in freezing weather (3 deg C or lower), as I'm not getting a great deal of compassion here, and it's clear no one has ever tried these pads. I imagine there would be a stigma - particularly in this group - about wearing "adult diapers." But I am serious about this. I guess the topic is such that those with experience in this area would not divulge it, so perhaps it was not prudent to bring this up in the first place. I just thought it was a clever idea.

OK, sorry I asked!
