Hubby is mad that I won't ride......

Starfish: What I find happens is whenever you find the perfect saddle ... the mfr stops making it or changes the design. My "love at first sit" saddle is no longer made. My LBS found me a great new one yet assures me if I want the one I had before he has 3 stored in a secret climate controlled vault hidden far northern Finland. Thanks Chris.

Triskeliongirl: I favor the policy that "slowest rider gets the best/lightest bike" that way both are happy. Either both have great bikes and faster rider gets a new commuter, cruiser or freewheel so she gets a workout in, or both have great bikes but slower rider gets the dream bike to help him keep up.

Well that's not necessarily true. Her husband isn't the only person out there telling women that fit doesn't matter or that they're just small men, and that attitude isn't unique to bicycling.

Sadly often that's the bike shop, which is why it's so important to find the right one.

It's a nice sunny day, a perfect day for a ride or to get ready for one. Hopefully GG you are out arranging a bike fit and trying out some new saddle choices.
