    Have you tried a recumbent? I hear they give you a hard ride… if you know what I mean.

    This is why I have to stop riding after 4 hours or seek medical attention

    /uj read the article so you don't have to. Indoor stationary runs for hours will fuck you up but real world conditions won't. Stand up every 15 minutes when riding (even waiting at a red light or something counts) and have a properly fitting bike and you'll be alright. And don't be a fat drinking smoker. 

    /rj fucking URologist, more like URNOT stopping me from my record stationary KOMs. Remember - relationships are temporary, records are forever (or until Fred starts running nitrogen on his tubes to fuck over my Strava runs)

    I feel my wife's bicycling boyfriend's solid erections are somewhat dysfunctional to our marriage.

    Riding a bike instantly castrates the rider so it’s a given

    tl;dr - cycling does not cause ED but it can cause fear of ED - urologist got rid of his bike but regrets it

    Joke on you:

    I started cycling because I already had erectile dysfunction.

    I can't speak for erectile dysfunction. I can say a friend who's done several triathlons said she spent so much time in the saddle that she hadn't felt her vagina in years. My empathetic response was that I hadn't felt her vagina, either.

    No, but explaining your yearly training program, your periodization strategy for peaking, and how you use visualization before races on your dates promotes celibacy.
