another thought, how many miles on the saddle? Is it time for a new saddle?

The last couple of days have been hectic so I haven't had a chance to act on the tips yet. They are all good ones and things to check out. One thing I noticed last week while taking photos while out touring on my bike. The horizon was not straight and I had to tilt a bit to make it straight. That leads me to think it's me and not the bike? Hmmm, I'm going to have to check this out. Could also explain the slight hitch in my giddy-up on the left side which is also the painful sit bone side.
Sky King, near as I can think off the top of my head without checking the saddle probably has about 2K on it? What might be considered the shelf-life of a saddle? Probably depends on weight of the rider and I'm no slouch in that department!
Oak and Muirenn, I ride flat platform pedals, no clipping. Claustrophobic about that, maybe someday...
