Whatever doesn't completely shatter our sitbones, will only make them more dead to all sensation.

Thanks Pete! It's great knowing I'll never have to adjust to anything, ever again!

Well, I'm an interpreter in real life so I'll play one here at trifuel:
Pete has a new seat on his bike. His old seat was trashing his "boys."
However, Pete's sit bones (actually part of his pelvis) are sore while he adjusts to the new seat.
In utter disgust with the pain he is feeling...he is banning any break in period necessary for comfortable private parts. He simply refuses to deal with it. A bold mental move,actually, necessary for those long races...
I take his ban to be for everyone! So rest easy...your "parts" will never suffer again.

Anton i'm guessing since you said your an interpreter you can speak at least two languages, just out of curiosity what else besides english?

I speak a passable German, some Spanish as my wife is from Argentina, but my job is as a Sign Language Interpreter for a local school system...I interpret for kids who are mainstreamed in one of the local high schools.
Yes...I'm a polyglot.

You have more than one wife?
Oh, I'm pretty fascinated with languages myself. I speak fluent French, decent Italian, horrible Spanish. I wish I could speak sign language though. My wife knows quite a bit. It's the coolest language, no question. (I was going to say "hands down" but that's too cheap a pun)

Thanks azstinger...but after 27 years of teaching and interpreting for the Deaf, I'm done. I refuse to be one of those cranky old teachers who should have quit years before. This is my last year. I'm not retiring, because I'll have to work till I'm dead...but I'm looking for a different path.
And thanks chunky...but don't get me started on hand puns...

Das problem is daß ich doch eine neue Radsitz gekauft habe, and des wegen habe ich auch weh am po.
I didn't look any of those words up, and I'm pretty sure I just made up the word Ratsitz, but still, you get the point.
I also think I need to adjust the saddle to point down a tiny bit. Its one of those Blackwell dealios, and I've read a couple things online that make me think it might be a good idea. Still adjusting. Thanks for reading all.
Daß ist alles.
My new saddle rides right on the sit bones. I'm assuming this is a good thing, because my previous saddle was pushing on parts that I'm not 100% sure have fulfilled the measure of their creations, if you know what I'm saying. Because of the unexpected sit-bone pain, I'm publicly decrying the adjustment period for the sit bones, in its entirety, and declaring it unneeded, deprecated, and therefor banned forever. From henceforth, taints and grundles alike will no longer need to adjust to new saddles, shorts, body positions, aerobars, and so forth.
That is all.
