    Just a note- never anything wrong with saving money on bike parts....but a saddle is not the item to skimp on- it's too important.

    Andrea- much better to store walnuts in your back jersey pocket, not in your shorts.

    The SMP saddles do take some getting used to. If you've ever experienced sitbone soreness from riding, prepare to feel the same type of pain, but in the other bones that you put weight on because of the unique curve of the SMP.

    And I'm not sure where I came up with the phrase "holy walnuts!" I think I started saying it over the summer. I'd spent too much time around some foul-mouthed male bike racers and had become accustomed to letting a few bad words slip without repercussions... then came the day when I was cleaning the gutters, and I got frustrated and let an f-bomb fly in front of my neighbor's kids... I felt bad and figured I needed to start being more creative with my language
    Because not every fast cyclist is a toothpick...
