I notice the angle of your saddle is not quite in-line with the frame. Offset slightly to the left, the same thing happens to most of my bikes after lots of riding, even though I build them all to be parallel on that axis. Have any of you noticed this on your bikes? Is there some kind of biophysical dynamic at play here? Or are we just crooked?
