Gee's other thread about reaching 3000 miles got me wondering about a stat that I keep, but rarely look at. In viewing my own bikejournal.com, log I realized that yesterday I had accumulated over 100 hours in the saddle since May 13, 2006 when I began cycling seriously. I figure I've learned a few things about comfort and discomfort in that period! So far, with the Bianchi, I have about 324 miles and 24 hours in the Bianchi Velo saddle. The previous 1000+ miles and 76 hours were done mostly on the Specialized Sirrus and the Specialized Avatar saddle. So far I am much more comfortable in the new saddle. Just goes to show how different we all are and that what works for one doesn't necessarily work for another.
