Y'all need to get one of these recumbent bikes. Ride all day, no butt pain, no wrist pain. Like sitting in an Easy Boy recliner and riding down the street. Super comfortable.

I looked into Rans once.. but it just didn't feel right. BTW, how do those things climb?

They climb fine, something "standup" riders sometimes have a hard time understanding.

You're pushing out with your legs. So you're using a very different set of muscles. Your butt muscles get used a lot :)

I get winded pretty easy, so hills for me are a bitch. But for someone with normal lung function, hills on a 'bent are about like hills on a "wegee bike" :)
