Rode yesterday up to Km 57 for a 60 km ride, came home via Diversion

Wheels of Happiness

After a pause of 3 days (last ride was last Saturday) I rode 30 km one way for  a 60 km out and back ride and then came home via Diversion road in  Cardona.   Was happy with this achievement and probably contributed to my strength and longevity

Saddle sore from my ride last Tuesday

Wheels of Happiness

Cant ride well today because of a saddle sore.   Its painful at the left side of the butt cheek probably from chafing the saddle.  But it was a short ride - only 40 km total.

My problems are:   how to remove pain and remove the swelling     The sore does not seem to be responding to medication.

I wonder how I got the same.   I have a good saddle, the ride was short.
