Straight ahead. I'm OCD about it, too.

You set yours askew, Dan? Everybody is different.

Pretty sure you should start a thread.

Straight ahead for me too
You must be different

I'd hate to start fathoming the reasons why one would set their saddle askew to one side or the other. No, let's not start a new thread.

Possibly a poll.

seedsbelize 04-25-17 07:51 AM

Which side does it point to? Or do you swing both ways with it.

seedsbelize 04-25-17 07:52 AM

Reminds me of an old joke. How do you know which side of the boat to fish out of?

For once, it's a genuine question I'm curious about, so I did start a thread :D

Please don't troll me.

Twisted pelvis?

It's not about what you're thinking it's about. I angle mine because my sitbones disagree with a straight ahead orientation.

What you're thinking of should be held securely in place by NOT BIBS (or bibs) above the saddle and shouldn't be "catching" on anything.

LesterOfPuppets 04-25-17 07:56 AM

I like mine off to the left just a hair. Gotsta be a twisted pelvis.

Dan333SP 04-25-17 07:57 AM

Also, completely unrelated but I have to do my first drug screen pee test ever today.

No, I didn't get a Cat 1 upgrade. It's just a requirement for the new job. We had asparagus last night too, feel bad for the lab tech.

Actually, maybe my right adductors are more sensitive to rubbing on the saddle nose? My bones seem alright with the straight ahead, it's just my right thigh that doesn't care for it.

Don't worry, I was not about to go there. I'm in enough hot water over disturbing the slumber of mummies. :D

They aren't going to test your hair? My employer does.

Maybe they will, I just assumed it was a pee test.

Good thing I didn't partake in any festivities last Thursday.

seedsbelize 04-25-17 08:06 AM

I had no issue with it at all, though it was difficult to believe.

Do you "dress right" or "dress left"?
