Great suggestions from one and all. Thanks. I going out for a ride later today and one thing I intend to try is tilting the nose up very slightly. I do tend to slide forward thus “leaning” on the bars from time to time. I have one of those long nose Fizik saddles, so I’m not sure how the boys will take to it – but it’s worth a try. I do think as suggested by many, that the problem is ME. I need lots of saddle time. There was a time – like the first week or so – when I thought I would never get used to clipless pedals, but now they are second nature

Now let me get some thoughts on another topic ! As I said in the original post, I have a bike that with upgrades is more bike than I deserve or need. HOWEVER, I can already feel the yearning for one of those $4000 machines. Some of my buds around here who purchased their bikes from Wal-Mart already think I’m nuts. How can the desire for an exotic bike be successfully defeated?

Thanks again for the assistance.
