A bit of obvious advice, forgive me if it sounds patronising or if it's way-off topic: if saddle-sore, consider cycling pants, either short or long version, with padded bottom. Make sure the saddle is adjusted to the proper height....when on the pedals, your leg full extended should be straight at the knee (to get maximum "push" and to avoid strain on knee-bits when your leg comes up to the top). After a few tries, you won't be saddle-sore anymore. And don't overdo it....I don't know what age you are, or fitness level or physique or whatever, but take it handy. The more you enjoy it, the more you'll do it! Best of Luck!:t:</p></blockquote><p></p>
