In 07 Jones raced for Nerac Pro Cycling, the same team that my coach races for now.

This is who I'm talking about:

It sounds like you were practically laying down on your bike.
Hey CK!

Yeah, the changes are pretty huge, but I lowered my saddle when I got back on the bike after my crash. My BB-Saddle is now very similar to what it used to be when I races, though I have to admit that my setback is very different!

I actually felt pretty comfortable with the way I had it earlier, but I wasn't getting much power out of my stroke, which was the problem. I lowered my saddle to get back into the swing of things when I started riding again. The biggest and best change so far is the custom footbeds, especially for my right foot. I might need to remold the left one or just use the stock insert for the left shoe since I didn't have problems with that before, but the right one feels incredibly comfortable.
