My mate Paul Quellin has been giving me some much needed advice on how to avoid issues such as cramp, foot rot in wet weather and saddle sore. Now when I read his email I had to do a double take as I thought I'd misread it. He reckons that to stop saddle sore I need to put a banana down my shorts...................yes I did just type that..and you did just read that!
A banana today
Apparently according to Paul, the oils from the skin are good for curing saddle sores. I think he is having me on in some sort of Spinal Tap fruit based mickey take.
Can anyone else confirm this about bananas? If it's true (or not I suppose) and someone donates £100 because of it. I'll wear a banana (just the skin mind) in my shorts (I'm not saying for how long though but I will produce photo/video evidence). :)
Update (4/11) Paul is really sorry. He made a mistake and cannot verify whether a banana has any effect whatsoever on saddle sores. He would like to apologise for any confusion he may have caused. He goes on to say however, that if I use a large Pineapple....(editor STOP THERE! thats enough of the fruit humour)
