Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Anyone here ride on Fizik Gobi saddle?

I ride the Fizik Arione on my rode bike and believe it to be the best seat for me; because of my experience with the Arione I installed a Gobi on my mountain bike and love it.

I use the Gobi on my road bike. Very nice saddle. I am only 5'8" and don't like saddles with long noses. The weight compares to most road saddles. I am though strongly thinking of giving the San Marco Concor a tryout.
