Cycling and the risk of impotency

[yenrod]

The saddle I got on my bike Big' - was great, nice width, weight fantastic for the cheapness of it ! But right there it wasnt SOO I cut it out..

...and now its just

...I read this can be an issue, and I can fully understand why after a ride like today, 90km with a new saddle & bar position. Ok so I went faster and didnt need an energy drink...just one bowl of cornflakes....but boy did I ever suffer from numb nutz syndrome.....still 'thawing out'...

...anyway too much detail I suspect....but is this likely to cause serious long term vertical challenges in the reproductive department?.....

Impotency through cycling is complete hogwash. Doesn't exist!

Can it affect girls too? can't say i've noticed any numbness after long rides but then again i've always been too knackered to be up for much straight after! i have been a tad sore tho, when i rode to Paris, so surely it can't be much good for us either?

Well not unless they've got a dick no lol!

Yes, it's best to wait until you get back home before having sex.

I used to get it with my decent Endura shorts

Completely stopped when I started wearing bib longs, I think the better precise pad and the resulting better positioning on the saddle did it, that or me losing weight, or getting fitter, or better muscled
