Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Crazy Saddle

Hey Guys,

I was just looking at my Procycling magazine, and saw a saddle that was...uh...different. It is called the Selle Italia Preziosa. It is covered in Iguana skin, with a carbon shell. It weighs 160 g. But the real amazing part-it costs $1850 Sorry, I dont have a picture, but if anyone does, feel free to post it.

Jake
