Brooks Saddles

[stella]

This may sound odd - but it was amazing at how I didn't really feel saddle beneath me with the brooks - only when I got off I noticed soft tissue was sore. Today - some soreness still. It may also be some of my adjustment to road bike from very upright hybrid commuter bike and my little downtube folding bike

not odd at all...I have the same experience with the brooks. It disappears when I am riding. I've never experienced that before on any type of bike. some soft tissue pain--that is disappearing, now, too. I rode 30 miles today and was pretty comfortable. (exams are done--I can just relax, now).
