    Well I guess I'd be a fool to turn that down!
    Thanks, DB.

    Will it hurt to ride it before treating it?
    The saddle, I mean. It may hurt my heinie though.

    Nah, I rode mine for a while before treating it. Maybe this weekend we can rendezvous for lunch somewhere and I can give it to you. Assuming I can find it, of course.
