In another thread I bemoaned an ongoing issue in the taint region. Since I'm doing longer trainer rides as part of my training plan I've been liberally applying chamois cream. I was still having issues.
Today, on my 3hr ride (Sufferlandria National Day of Suffering) I used no cream and wore tri shorts Vs the bibs I've been wearing on my long rides. No issues and the taint region issue felt fine ( other than the normal relative discomfort that comes with a 3hr ride).
I'm wondering about the shorts but also if the thick application of the cream was actually aggravating the issue versus helping it. Anyone else have similar experience?
