Long time lurker, finally decided to post based on some "trouble" I've been having this season.
I've been cycling for 3 years now and for some reason this year I'm having a lot of trouble with my gentlemans sausage (for all you TG fans) and balls getting in the way. My balls are definitely on the large side so I'm very careful to position things just so at the start of my ride but without a doubt eventually they get in the way and I end up sitting to the left or right of the seat. This screws up my posture and has actually contributed to a lot of lower back pain while riding because my posture is out of whack now while protecting the goods.
There must be other cyclists on this site that have experienced the same problem.
What cycling shorts/pants have you found work best? Did switching saddles help, a cup, anything? After my ride yesterday I told my roommate I was taking the week off due to back pain which all stems from my poor posture due to my junk getting in the way.
