Do You Suffer From Fanny Agony?... Then you need...

**ceebie13** · 25th May 2007, 11:35

Only in America. Couldn't resist these two write ups.

Lycra Shorts :One of the best technology crossovers from bicycling to motorcycling are padded, stretchy shorts. Really. If you’ve never worn these things on a long ride, you owe it to yourself. They seem to add another couple hundred miles to a day, as they keep the ‘fanny agony’ at bay longer than yer basic briefs. These are a modified version of bicycle shorts, cut slightly shorter in the legs, and with all the Lycra and fleece of the originals. Put a stop to chafing, stay comfortable and keep riding! (Also an old Iron Butt rider’s secret weapon.)

and...

Monkey Butt: This will save your ass on long, hard rides. It’s purpose-built for your butt, but also works great in underwear and everywhere that is sensitive to chafing, burning, reddening rashes. More than a re-packed drugstore talc or a baby powder, this proprietary formula eliminates getting painfully chafed, raw and rashy during sweaty butt-busting activities. It also provides an immediate ‘aaaahhh-oooohhh’ skin relief on (or after) tough rides. Good for motorcyclists, truck drivers, off road and road drivers, bicyclists, etc., whenever your butt takes a pounding all day. 6oz. bottle.

Buy the two products and a sheepskin pad and you'll be in seventh heaven!
Love the bit about your butt taking a pounding each day...must be aimed at George Michael!

Somehow "Baboon Butt" doesn't quite cut it! lol

I have a pair of cycling shorts here from my 12 speed days but think perhaps they might be overkill on a motorbike. The sort of thing that used to be sold as "triathlon shorts" might do it. They didn't have the big chamois pad, they had towelling or similar.

Silly as it may seem on first read, I do know of serious motorcyclists who wear these under their touring suit. ( You won't be needing them for a quick fang around the bays...)

If I was ever to contemplate the Rusty Nuts/ Southern Cross sort of thing, several pairs of these would be first on the shopping list.

Dont know about monkey butt, but I've heard of Duck Butter...being the waxy residue built up in the butt crack after days unwashed. Apparently this was a term coined by a Bostonian, so if the description isnt funny, the accent when told definately was

I won't go into the term of "clinkers" then!

Thanks for that, although given the quote, I reckon I've got a fair idea:O

**Babelfish** · 25th May 2007, 20:41

Looks like they would keep all your bits tidy for sure, do they have that jelly padding? forget the Monkey Butt stuff, there is a great product available here at the chemist called "3B" cream..........leave you lot to fill in the B - Words
