My LBS understands me!

The first little bit of riding I also felt like I needed to scoot back on the saddle. I'm going to ride a little more and see if I still feel that way (I only rode 8 miles yesterday). Did have to keep reminding myself to fix my back posture, which changed the way my saddle position felt so it felt good again; so I won't move the saddle yet.

Yes I know just what you mean. And yes it's good to not make adjustments until after riding for a week or two. It's part bike adjustment- and part body adjustment! And our bodies sometimes take a few weeks to adjust to new postion and/or balance.

Bike shops like this and all of your talk about Seattle make me want to move... Anyone know of any cheap apartments?

[KnottedYet]

Apts here in the north end are cheaper (but nothing is cheap). I'm trying to rent out one of my bedrooms (master with full bathroom) to help cover my rent.

Apartments in the south end are cheaper too!

Like any big city, the closer in you are the more it costs to live there, but we certainly have some advantages.

I lived in West Seattle and while it's overpriced, you can find things that aren't too terrible. I loved West Seattle...also for a while I had a 3 bedroom house in Normandy Park. I paid $700/month but the house was a bit, how do I say this, antiquated. And the cats caught a rat once. So on second thought, $700 houses in Normandy Park are not so good.

Speaking as someone who moved here not that long ago in the scheme of things, Seattle is great!
