Well, that was interesting...

Finally pulled the bike out the shed last Sunday, after not using it since I was last active on here. (2014 !)

Went for a 2-3 mile ride with the partner, and oh my have i regretted that since...
Monday I was fine, although my sit bones were bruised. Tuesday my body revolted and decided to swell up my Perineal raphe (Don't google that at work...) to five times its normal size causing me an incredible amount of pain when sitting, walking and some other things... I even fashioned a "dougnut of shame" to help relieve some of the pain ! I got so worried I called 111.... Mercifully the paramedic who I was put through to had one hell of a sense of humour !
Thankfully It has got better since, and I have figured out that I must have knocked my saddle back when uncovering it, and was sat too far forward..

Has anyone else had the same issue, and any preventative measures ? (aside from saddle position..)
