Your recovery ride looked like fun too. Hopefully you felt better Sunday.

Actually, I was feeling pretty ok once I was off the bike, go figure!Ouch Asia, that sounds awfully painful. That's when you had said you were pulling over in to the shade? You should have told me, I would've waited with you.
Specialized saddles are pure evil for me. I think I've gone through most of their line! Glad to hear it's working for you though. Saddle issues really suck.Recovery ride was great... another pretty route through Stevens Cyn.

So far, nothing has worked for me beyond 30-40 mile rides.

Thats my assesment of the Assos bibs too. Way over rated, or perhaps rated by those that have not ridden the specialized bibs. The Assos worked fine for me, but the specialized are way more comfortable.

I just have this juvenile giggle whenever I pronounce "Assos".
Anyways, pics are up on photocrazy.com.
