The bike computer was basically to get a feel for how fast I was going (I was very surprised) and what kind of distance I was riding. You don't get a good feel for the distance of a mile in a car.

I have no doubt about the value of a computer with Cadance but right now $$$ is a bit of an issue (having just bought my bike and all ) so for now, I'll have to make do with this which should be fine.

Sunday, I had vowed to get a new saddle no matter what. Yesterday I mentioned it to a guy at my LBS and he said it could take some getting used to. So I want to give it a try for a month or so before I buy a new one. And it's actually started to not bother me so much. I will look into adjusting tilt and such later this week if it's still giving me grief.
