    My experience with shorts wearing out is that there is suddenly a moment where they become completely unsatisfactory. There may be a gradual decline that I just don't notice, but when they're done, they're done.

    I've had the same experience with padding in walking shoes.
    Each day is a gift, that's why it is called the present.

    Went back to the LBS in Lincoln and we swapped out for a Ruby. I asked about a fit and hope to get one set up soon. As he was putting the saddle on he said my seat post wasn't high enough and had me sit on the bike with my heel on the pedal (this is a new one) and moved me up something like an entire inch..WOW. Then he sent me outside with the Ruby saddle to see how it fit. One inch made a HUGE difference and having a hard saddle like the Ruby Expert felt really nice. The cool thing about Specialized packaging is that there is a diagram showing where your saddle should be level. Great idea.

    Fingers crossed that this is the saddle.
