Most Comfortable Bicycle Bike Seat Saddle

For a skinny 130 - 140lb., 30+yr.-old, Asian male. Tried 10 relevant saddles before settling on these:
1. WTB Speed She
2. WTB Pure V
3. Try any WTB saddles!

No, I do not work for WTB. But, I am a year-round cyclist in Toronto and have worked for bike shops since 2000 and am currntly gainfully employed as the service manager at a busy downtown bicycle shop.

BROOKS? Havent tried yet. But, I will, come spring with the classic B17. Currently on the WTB Speed She...if only they'd make it lighter and longer! :I But, alas, yes, it is a "women's" saddle :P...but my goodness is it ever comfortable!

Thank God for NORCO who is the big distributor of WTB saddles to all your local independent bicycle shops in Canada. But, of course, u cn get a WTB product anywhere in the world.  So get one and sit on it!

Ride On!

Le Tour de France 2010!

IDEA: Names on all riders' jerseys pleeeeaase! Just like almost every other sport! Currently, it is too difficult to identify riders - even for the pro-commentators! I believe the SKY cycling team has lead the way by putting riders' names on jerseys for the 2010 Tour de France. This will catch on...

Ride to Conquer Cancer

This ride is more of a fun, challenging ride for riders and less about actually helping cancer sufferers. I dare you to find out how much of your money actually goes directly to benefiting cancer research and treatments.

Canadian Tire Bike's Bars Sold New in 2 Pieces.

Blue Road Bike from Canadian Tire? The Medalist? Your handlebar is in 2 pieces! It's split in the centre/where the stem connects to it - where you cannot see it, of course. Why?? Because it's "cheap" and cheap things often include curious and suspicious things and unfortunately in this case, seemingly very unsafe things! You get what you pay for.
