Is that a Brooks saddle @Brandane?
Edit: read your other thread now, it is a Brooks.

It is. A B17 narrow; which I find more comfortable than the standard B17 which is now on my Tricross.

Watching cycling?
Doing the real thing? Today? Chucking it down, as per usual.

Tour de France on the tv, rather watch that than any tennis. Cycled in the rain yesterday, not a problem to do with a jacket on.

Your enthusiasm for cycling is admirable; but for me it doesn't make a good spectator sport. Neither is it fun in the rain, and there is no such thing as waterproof clothing. I enjoy cycling as a pastime but there are limits!

A good Tdf stage, with mountains, bad weather, is far superior to watching two guys use their tennis clubs while upper class Toffs clap Inbetween rounds.

Got a funny story to tell!
My joiner asked me if I'd been on TV in June regarding the Edinburgh cycle festival.
"I could have sworn it was you, she looked like you" he said.
Uhm, I asked him if she had an accent, he said yes.
It obviously was @Telemark and he obviously needs to go to Specsavers, but I was oh so flattered ... @Telemark is much slimmer than I am!
