I find that lycra with a seamless chamois is best for avoiding "sore as hell" labia. I'm not too keen on women's chamois though. They are usually way too big, they bunch up, and feel somewhat diaperish. For our team shorts, we choose the MLP men's pad. Its seamless and it has that antibacterial fabric that wicks away moisture. The team seems happy with them. Keeping the goods dry is also critical. Moving around on the saddle can help. Standing once in a while to shift positions. I am not a big fan of chamois creams. I don't even use them in 24 hour races. I prefer to change shorts often instead. Of course, there are those long days in the saddle when your labia is going to be sore as hell no matter what methods you employ.schwinn77 said:maybe they should call this forum the butch forum. may all your labia be sore as hell on your next ride.
Wishing me a sore labia. Every time my labia is sore, I can't ride. It's kind of like Catzilla's huge pecker getting in the way of riding.schwinn77 said:maybe they should call this forum the butch forum. may all your labia be sore as hell on your next ride.
Seat position is critical too. Too much of an upward angle and you'll be walking like a old cowboy for days.Sabine said:I find that lycra with a seamless chamois is best for avoiding "sore as hell" labia. I'm not too keen on women's chamois though.

Maybe a keeper that you rinse off by peeing on it? (backcountry use)Christine said:What do guys THINK the Women's Lounge is all about, anyway?! A bunch of dainty 20-somethings all sitting quietly on tuffetts, dressed in pink satin and just waiting for a manly MTB-er to come in and sweep us off our feet?!
If that 40-count box of Tampax doesn't scare 'em away, I don't know what will! Ha.
My friend was riding her bike (road) and had SUBC - hit it relaly hard - so hard that , um, there was a small split and she started bleeding. Poor thing was with a bunch of guys and just was too shy to tell them what was going on, and had a bloody chamois, and well, I'm sure that enough info for both gals and guys here.oldbroad said:You'll also want to avoid the SUSC (sudden unexpected seat contact) and the SUBC (sudden unexpected bar contact).You know, when you slip and whack yourself in the privates with the seat or the bar. It hurts like hell even with padded shorts.
I've done the old seat or bars whack to myself many times...but never bad enough to cause bleeding. YIKES.Impy said:My friend was riding her bike (road) and had SUBC - hit it relaly hard - so hard that , um, there was a small split and she started bleeding.
