You definitely want to be facing the handlebar thingie...you don't want to be facing backwards if you have a sagging sack and no backrest!!

I just drape 'em down the side of the tank.
Mount slowly on those hot, sunny days.
I thought the "Crotch Coolers" were to park 'em on...
Gotta be careful not to let the head touch those hot pipes too!

This may have been addressed already, but look at Diamond Gusset jeans or Wrangler jeans, if you are poor like me. They are designed better in the ballroom and much more comfortable. I also had success with the Air Hawk 2 cushion. Also investigate the Beadrider web sight, these can help also.

The Gusset jeans are pricey but work well. Until this Wed, their 21% off with cheaper shipping. Wranglers don't compare in the "ball room" department....

Exactly. I saw this original post early a.m. And knew it would be funny.

Personally, I have the UA compression shorts that I use for long rides. Stop for a pee, arrange the junk, and get on the bike to go--works great.
