Rest day today. I climbed on the bike for about ten minutes and was informed in no uncertain terms that my body had had enough. Another 24 hours, including some better sleep and some soft seating -- and I think it's about time to start looking at new saddles, in the name of starting where I am instead of where I was hoping I'd be. I'll be trying coconut oil to speed the breaking-in before I buy a new one, but my bike's made for an upright riding posture, which was a major selling point for me, and I'd much rather change the saddle than the way I ride my bike.
