Absolutely not. I even have different bottles for the bikes so they don't clash. Nope. Not a girl thang at all.

me, too...me, too.

Finally met someone who likes this saddle, who isn't Dave Zabriskie.

I'm an Arione guy, myself. My butt likes the "flex wings."

And really, about Brooks, I don't hate them but I do think they're overrated, sort of like the current batch of Martin guitars. And their fans are insufferable. I gave up on my Pro for a Unicanitor in 1976.

Amen, I have a B17, B17 narrow, and a B67. Through the years I have tried others but keep going back to the best - Brooks.
