Well…I am starting to have hope that my hands and feet are getting better…I have stopped itching all over so that is a good thing…but, that’s not what this is about…after I replaced the rear shock on the bike, I was having problems getting comfortable on it…something had changed and I was just not able to figure it out…it got to the point that I was thinking I was just getting bored with it…but, after I replaced the new shock after it failed with the old one…the bike feels good again and there is no squirming around in the seat trying to get comfortable…and I think I figured it out that the old shock has a different ride height than the new one which puts me more over the pedals than behind them and gives me a more direct pedal stroke….all I know is that today’s ride felt good and the bike feels more solid that it has in a while….it’s funny how an inch of change can have such a huge effect…
