cycling damage libido ?

[drewc65]

Anyone see page 38 off the daily mail yesterday. It says the bane of the bike. Basically it says that riding a bike can kill off your libido due to the bits off your body you sit on. What do the panel think. This study was done in 2005.

L.O.B. {load of buzzcocks}......cycling makes you fitter,healthier,more energetic and have a more positive outlook.

Ideal conditions for rumpy pumpy, in my opinion.

Daily Mail.... Nuff said.

I see the Daily Mail has its finger on the pulse, as awlays

I like to think of the Daily Mail as an amature version of Viz.

It can't be easy sitting on a chair all day, staring at your blue hessian partition, having to think up things to write about. I feel sorry for the poor journalists- everybody loathes and distrusts them. They've never told the truth. They have to make things up to make their stories sound remotely exciting. People expect them to pay for everything.

Must be a terrible existence...

Being an unhealthy git sat on ones bottom would affect libido. Any serious cyclist doesnt have any issues down there and they benefit from being much fitter than average.

My experience has been the opposite tbh.

After all my years of cycling and the amount off time I am in the saddle. I think fathering a child at the age of 44 show's that report as the complete crap it is.

What a load of tripe - but what did you expect from that comic?

 

[s7ephanie]

all i can say is that when i've been for a long cycle ride - i wouldn't feel a thing anyway

On the other hand........
When I saw the hospital doctor about prostate problems he did suggest that cycling isn't always prostate friendly. Saddle manufacturers also recognise the risk to some people and have designed "prostate friendly" saddles. Having said that bear in mind that prostate health is a different thing to libido. A vasectomy was the biggest boost to my libido........

That seals it. I am buying one of these...

If the saddle is set wrong, then it is not out of the way, but I can see more of an issue from a 'budgie smuggling 'lycra injury' than the act of riding a properly set up bike.
