LOL. Think I have spent 1 G this year on saddles. I could open a saddle store.

I find that cycling is like a like a time machine transporting me back to my 30s when I first discovered cycling in earnest. I lose my age. As I grow stronger and cycle farther the satisfaction just increases. On the rare occasion I out climb someone younger by a decade or two (mostly inexperienced) I smile to myself.
