I've found that occasionally standing up (not in heavy traffic!) helps keep the nether regions a little less "swampy"...

Where in VA are you?

@Derrick8732 I think you are missing out on an opportunity to do a commercial with Duluth Trading Company.

Definitely! Well, if you are ever in the area and want a riding partner, let me know!

I just bought a little CRF230M and, holy cheezits, is that thing fun! Spent most of today going all kinds of places I wasn't supposed to be!
