Research shows noseless saddle helps prevent erectile dysfunction

Submitted by AArcangel on Thu, 06/30/2011 - 9:21am

“There’s as much penis inside the body as outside,” Dr. Schrader told me. “When you sit on a regular bike saddle, you’re sitting on your penis.”

Interesting read. Thoughts? How many of you ride a noseless saddle?

Sports drink

Submitted by BMirell on Wed, 06/29/2011 - 8:16pm

I haven't bought Cytomax (my drink of choice) in awhile (the 80 something serving bottle lasts me many months) and have just discovered that it now contains Stevia, an awful tasting sugar substitute. Does anyone have a favorite sports drink (not recovery drink) that doesn't contain this natural but vile tasting addition...?

Anyone going down that way for the 4th?

If so, hit me up.  And, we'll ride.

Death and doom

Submitted by Jim N on Wed, 06/29/2011 - 11:19am

Am I the only one who doesn't want to read about death and dismemberment on the NYCC message board?

If you read, say, a car forum (and way more people die in cars, even in New York City, than in any other method of transport), it's not all about death.

Why are cyclists so obsessed with or fascinated by accidents?  Just looking at the raw statistics, it's not like we have that much to worry about.

I hope I haven't offended anyone by expressing this sentiment.

Jersey Shore Routes?

Submitted by kevbo205 on Wed, 06/29/2011 - 11:13am

I am wondering if anyone has information for rides around the Jersey Shore.  I found a route to get down there from Newark which I plan on doing, but I'm wondering if anyone has suggestions for day rides I can do once I'm down there.  If not full rides, then even just somes good roads to ride on or sources where I could find such information?

Specifically, I'll be down near Point Pleasant / Seaside so rides around the Tom's River or even slightly further west would be great.
