|   It me again with more set up questions.... | Gall
Aug 4, 2003 6:06 AM | | Hello again...
I have everything fitting good except the boys. I'm not having any more neck, hip or triceps. But I cant get the boys from going numb.
I have no clue to where to begin. Any suggestions?
Thanks! |

The other suggestion, which I know works for many of my Ironman buddies, is to stand up once and a while, maybe every 8 or 10 mins.. just for a short(s) stretch.... (ok, terrible terrible pun...)
They found that this reduced the feeling of numbness after long rides. |
