As a cyclist I sympathize with your hubby. I too had to buy those shorts thanks to the gym only having standing cycles with those no padding, log splitter seats. But honestly who wants to look like they have a lumpy enhanced booty when attending the gym? Thankfully I at least replaced the seat on my home bike with a more comfortable seat to avoid the pain ...and any extra public ridicule.

Haha! Yes, sitting on the bench press in those shorts must be awkward :D

Brilliant! 👍🤪

🙏You just lifted a corner of the Serious-Cycling-in-Lycra-Bike-Shorts-World that is baffling to a complete outsider like me. I also adore your zap-the-ends-of-laces story and am looking online for the very contraption to end all frayed laces forever! I salute your persistence and ingenuity but mostly your inimitably hilarious way of making me laugh on a stormy wet end-of-summer-day! (way too many hyphenated words there🙈).

Dear heavens I almost spilled my coffee the moment I realized the other half of the seat is in the shorts indeed, that great drawing will start a movement
