Yeah, I'm in the middle of getting all the bikes positioned the same, or rather, getting me positioned the same on all the bikes.

Started a week ago Friday at the LBS with my Litespeed and the Portland. We started with the Litespeed since it was closest to how I wanted to feel, but not quite there. We ended up moving everything forward a cm.

Then we transferred the measurements to the Portland. It's been three or four years since I had a fitting done on it. We moved everything moved down and forward on it. (I'm at the limit of moving the saddle forward on a Thomson setback seatpost.) Now the Portland is fun to ride again.

I've been riding only those two bikes since then, making sure that's where I want things. On this coming Friday it's back to the LBS with Blue Steel and YellowBike. YellowBike's saddle is already pretty far forward on its seatpost, so it will probably need a straight seatpost instead of its Thomson setback.

Gee, we could have traded seatposts!
