Anyone else suffer with this painful condition sometimes? If so, what's the best method of prevention? I only suffer occasionally on very long rides. I was thinking plasters, what do you reckon?

[QUOTE 3831427, member: 259"]What material is the top you are wearing made of?[/QUOTE]
It's a proper cycling top, Northwave one made of 100% polyester. No problems usually. It was a particularly windy day so that didn't help matters, and I did a century ride which is extremely rare. Plasters in future for long rides I think!
 
Lick them....
More fun if you get someone else to do that :biggrin:

Seriously though, vaseline, or you can get nipple tassels plasters

What about micropore tape? Hopefully sticky enough to remain attached but maybe not so sticky that you will get a chest wax when removed! :laugh:

GT85 is worth a try, but failing that I always carry one of those chapstick thingies on chilly days and apply liberally as and when necessary, but be careful where you do it. I did it in a cafe car park recently and was getting some very odd looks from a couple of older ladies.
