That's a bit disheartening. I always feel rather uncomfortable for the first 3 or 4 miles, where I switch hand positions about 40 times, then I finally settle on one(generally right on the bend from the flats to the horns) and stay that way for much of the rest of the ride.
I'm thinking about giving drops/hoods another shot though. I just don't want to drop(pun) the coin on decent hoods and end up disliking the setup.
