Back in the Saddle


... Well, not quite yet. Darn these cold, wet days! Even though we've been restricted to the stationary and treadmill at the gym, a good friend and avid cyclist suggested this article on selecting and adjusting the perfect saddle for your bike. We didn't realize how important and complex a saddle fitting can (and should) be, especially for long rides.

We welcome your comments about other great resources!

  1. Hey folks, I'll be biking with you cross country this summer. Haven't read the article but couldn't agree more about a good saddle. You don't want something too soft and the spring saddles are more for upright riding. Brooks makes a very good touring saddle but might take some time to break in. Mine was comfy right out of the box! If you've got any questions feel free to get in touch. Looking forward to meeting you two - Tom Ludzia
