New to riding? New bike? New position? Lardy? Wear cycling mitts? New position?

I had the same problem after a few years off, it will get better and go away as you harden up a bit (not saying you are a softie of course!)

I don't know what's lardy, he means fat/overweight.
It could just be something that your body needs to get used to, I was amazed at how much my arms ached and my wrists hurt when I restarted this, properly, a year ago. I don't notice anything now.

Yes i meant are you fat. I was and as the fat went the pain went. Bike set up has a huge ammount to do with wrist pain especially bar width and reach too.

I have the same problem, unless I wear gloves/mitts I can't stay on the bike for longer than a few minutes. Gloves help a lot, get some if you don't already.
Yeah, should've read your first reply a bit more closely before I posted, sorry! You doofus MacDaddy!
