Booty Butter

🚨 WE DID IT! 🚨

17 riders. 17 x $4,000+. 💛

When our B***y Butter team signed up for the MACA Cancer 200, the fundraising milestone we had in our heads was $4,000 per rider.

That’s the number our team had been working towards all year.

And now… EVERY SINGLE ONE OF OUR 17 RIDERS HAS CRACKED $4,000! 🎉🙌

Together, this little team has raised an incredible $96,697+ for the MACA Cancer 200 — and we are absolutely bloody proud of them.

But this isn't just a number to us.

Cancer has touched every single person on this team in some way. 💛

Parents. Partners. Family. Friends. People we love.

And this year, cancer has touched our own team in a very personal way, with one of our beautiful B***y Butter riders now just 6 weeks cancer free. 💛

So when we say this ride means something to us… we mean it.

Every kilometre ridden, every dollar raised, every donation shared and every person who has backed our team has helped us get to this point.

But here's the thing…

We’re not done yet. 😏

💥 17 riders
💥 $4,000+ EVERY. SINGLE. RIDER.
💥 $96K+ raised
💥 $100K in our sights

We are now just over $3,300 away from $100,000.

So we're putting it out there…

LET'S SMASH $100K! 🚀

We couldn’t be prouder of this bunch of legends.

17 people. One team. One very big reason to keep riding.

💛 Help us make $100K happen!

🎓 B***Y BUTTER ACADEMY | LESSON 4
Why Chafing Happens
Have you ever wondered why chafing can happen on a 20 km ride just as easily as it can on a 100 km ride?
It's not just about the distance you ride.
Chafing happens when friction, pressure, heat and moisture work together over time.
Every pedal stroke creates movement between your skin, your cycling shorts and your saddle. Multiply that by thousands of pedal strokes, and even a small amount of rubbing can become uncomfortable.
The four biggest causes of chafing are:
🚴 Friction – Repeated rubbing between your skin, shorts and saddle.
💧 Moisture – Sweat softens the skin, making it more vulnerable to irritation.
🔥 Heat – Warm conditions increase perspiration and skin sensitivity.
🪑 Pressure – Long periods sitting on the saddle increase stress on your contact points.
The good news?
Most chafing is preventable.
By wearing well-fitting cycling shorts, keeping your chamois clean and applying a protective barrier before every ride, you can significantly reduce the risk of discomfort.
Comfort isn't something you hope for...
It's something you prepare for.
💗 Ride Comfortable. Ride Confident. Ride Further.

💡 Coach B***y Says
"Chafing isn't caused by one big moment—it's caused by thousands of tiny moments of friction."

⭐ Gold Star Tip
Even the best cycling shorts can't eliminate friction on their own. Preparation before your ride is just as important as the gear you wear.

❓Question of the Week
Which factor do you think causes the most discomfort on your rides?
🚴 Friction
💧 Sweat
🔥 Heat
🪑 Long hours in the saddle

**UPDATE **
The headphones have found their way back to their owner with a couple of tubs of B***y Butter!!

Doing our bit to keep everyone staying smooth!!

Awesome day of racing & riding at the Bike it to Ballidu event by WestCycle Events. We were given a set of Shokz headphones to hold onto as they are not allowed on the race and the lovely lady has forgotten to pick them up from us! If this was you, let us know what colour they are and we will make sure they find their way back to you!!

Debbie’s at it again!!

Thanks to the police officers of Wongan Hills for keeping the peace at Bike it to Ballidu…… and keeping Debbie in line!

Shout out to Wongan Hills District High School P&C sausage sizzle.

We are back at Bike it to Ballidu!
Beautiful day for a ride.

🚚💛 DELIVERED!

This morning we proudly delivered our 50ml B***y Butter tubes to the Perkins ready to be packed into the rider packs for this year’s MACA Cancer 200 Ride.

And seeing them all lined up in the packing room made us just a little bit excited! 😍

What started with a conversation about supporting riders has grown into something we’re incredibly proud to be part of.

💛 B***y Butter is proud to partner with the Perkins and the MACA Cancer 200 Ride, helping keep riders comfortable from saddle to finish line while they take on this incredible challenge to raise funds for cancer research and support.

There’s something pretty special about knowing our little tubes of chif chaf cream will be heading out with thousands of riders across WA. 🚴‍♀️🚴‍♂️

A huge thank you to the Perkins team for trusting two Aussie women and their little WA business to be part of the ride.

We’re proud. We’re grateful. And we’re bloody excited! 💛

Bring on the MACA Cancer 200! 🚴‍♀️💨

Where Should You Apply Chamois Cream?

If you've ever wondered where chamois cream should actually go, you're not alone.
One of the most common questions we get is whether you should apply it to your skin, your cycling shorts, or both.

The simple answer?

Apply B***y Butter directly to the areas of your skin that experience the most friction during your ride.

These are the places where your body makes the most contact with your chamois and saddle.

Some riders also like to apply a small amount to the pad (chamois) in their cycling shorts for an extra layer of protection.

The goal isn't to use lots of product everywhere—it's to protect the areas that work the hardest.

Remember...

Prevention is always better than trying to fix discomfort once it starts.

Apply before you ride, not after.

💗 Ride Comfortable. Ride Confident. Ride Further.

💡 Coach B***y Says
"Think friction, not soreness. Apply B***y Butter anywhere your skin and saddle work together."

⭐ Gold Star Tip
Don't wait until you feel discomfort.
Once chafing starts, it's much harder to manage than it is to prevent.

❓Question of the Week
Where do you normally apply your chamois cream?

🔘 Skin only
🔘 Chamois only
🔘 Both
