Hi no i dont have cycle shorts at the moment I'm using base layer leggings and three Quater length shorts over the top they are washed everyday and I def agree with the personal hygiene thing I shower after my ride and always bathe in the evening will persevere with the saddle. For a few months and see what occurs, do you recommend gel seats or traditional styles I know it's personal preference but to get a feal for what's being used by other riders ect thanks for your input
