Mailman came, brought my Brooks B17

So I came home today and saw a box, got as excited as a little kid on Hanukkah
Open the box, hmm a little heavy, open the brooks box.... see my B17....
Whoever said that Brooks saddls look dorky was....WRONGGGGGGGG oh so WRONGggg. It looks so pretty and so classy, the workmanship is just amazing. Put proofide under and on top and it's drying now. My baby bike is getting tune up so I will post my first ride report in a week or so. Proofide smells better than some of my hand creams sort of lemony.

Aren't they lovely?
Every time I see an etailer with B17 on sale I automatically get excited about it and click to add it to my cart. Then I remember all my bikes already have Brooks saddles and I talk myself out of buying a spare.
May you put many thousands of miles on your new saddle!

The mailman arrived the other day with my new-to-me Finesse. I can't wait to take the bike out on a spin with her. If this doesn't solve my saddle sore issues, I guess a custom fitting is in my future.

Thank you ladies,
B17 is really a neat looking saddle. I really like how my Selle Italia Gel Max Flite looks but this takes it to a whole different meaning. Retroooooo
Now I have to loose at least 2 pounds to make up for new saddle :-)
offthegrid, Let me know how you like your finesse.
