I get numb hands when I ride my comfort type bike. My bike shop recommended that I raise my handlebars. Currently they are about even with the saddle. I'll raise them two inches to see if it helps. Any other ideas? I do were padded gloves.

wsommariva said:Ok, getting too complicted. I do have a great bike shop. I'll visit this Saturday and get it done. Thanks.

I also get real bad groin muscle pain that suddenly appears and suddenly goes away. I'll mention that on Saturday.

wsommariva said:Yup. 53. Can't run much any longer, bought a bike, lost 13 pounds and found it's a great workout.
