Hopefully it's not just me that suffers from this irritating (embarrassing) problem, or maybe it is!
In this rare warm weather that we are experiencing at the moment, I seem to get a sweat rash at the
top of my legs, right in between the seat area (without being too graphic!). If anyone knows of a
cure, or preventative way of this happening, I would be very grateful. Either that, or I carry on
walking like I have just got off my horse! Cheers, embarrassingly in advance, John

Well assuming there's not a non-cycling cause to the rash ;-)
Keep the area *scrupulously clean* shower immediately after cycling and make sure you dry it
properly. Talc can help.Then prior to donning cycling shorts, smooth some Savlon/Germolene type cream in to said area.
Also keep shorts scrupulously clean - wear once only before washing.
Cheers, helen s

~~~~~~~~~~Wear shorts once, remove immeadiately after ride (I don't mean at the tea stop though!). Shower as
soon as possible. Use Assos chamois cream on the area during the ride and coat with Sudacrem after
showering. Works for me.Mark

preferably dry out between riding in to work and riding home, there is no real problem. I have never
had to use any of those fancy creams and preparations. But then I normally only ride short distances
(up to 30 miles), with only the occasional 80-100 miles jaunt.Guy

Nope, it's me as well :-(
I've been to the doc for advice on this and he suggested that it could be a fungal infection.
Without getting too graphic - like athlete's foot with pain instead if itching.A course of Canestan crean (available over the counter) worked for me. Get the cream not the
'other' form ;-)May you be better very soon, Robert
