When I was younger in high school I do not remember having this problem but last weekend I rode for the first time in a long time (more than a couple of miles.) Ummm the boys went numb. I was wondering is it from not riding and need to get used to it again, possibly a seat issue, or even a garment issue?

I have a Gary Fisher Wahoo with the seat it came with.

Thanks in advance,

Not pleasant! Happened to me once on the trainer, and I adjusted my saddle tilt (it was slightly upward) and that fixed it. Here's a pretty good medical article on it.

Seat issue. It's pinching the nerve there. I have mine turned slightly to the left.

Thanks for the replys so far. Looks like I will start with some seat adjustments.

As usual, too much information.

You don't pick a side?

You shouldn't even be participating in this discussion since you are already half numb.

It gives me more of a reason. If I wasn't so cynical I'm be rallying for testis numbness awareness.
