    Why are Brooks Saddles known for comfort?

    I always position the nose slightly up.

    Why are Brooks Saddles known for comfort?

    I ride 3 Brooks (one on each bike) One of them is a Storck (£12,000) out n out race bike. Other riders are bemused to see such an "old, vintage" saddle on such a machine. I won't take chances on comfort. So it's twice as heavy! I can ride all day long, with no saddle issues - don't even think...

    Edge, on all my bikes I ride Brooks. On my two Gains, I have Brooks Pro's and B17's on my Domane and Storck. Can't be beat once broken in for comfort.

    When was the last time you rode an acoustic bike?

    Cap, when I held a 1st Cat license, it was fairly easy to do. Especially at the rear of the bunch.

    When was the last time you rode an acoustic bike?

    At least once a week, I get my Trek Domane out for a ride. Not usually more than 30 miles, and always include a cafe stop. By doing so, it enables me to appreciate my Obrea Gains and never become complacent of the help I receive when riding them.

    Orbea Gain E-Road Bike

    Finally broken in after around 500 miles. Finest saddle you can get. The honey, so matches the frame also. Now I will have no problem with comfort, on all day rides.

    How many of you park inside the home?

    Ah, that was about 3 weeks ago. Think it was the Welsh Open? That's Jack Lasowaski getting beat in the first round. Think it was Kyren Wilson who did him?

    How many of you park inside the home?

    It doesn't deserve ranking points. It's a lottery. Mark Selby 3 frames up on Mark Williams at the moment. In a genuine ranking tourney. Come on Williams (got £50 on him) I won it today in a match.

    How many of you park inside the home?

    Mine are safely kept in my snooker room a converted barn, just behind the house, creating a courtyard. Heated all winter through, 24 hours (for the benefit of the table) and now my 2 Gains. Main room is alarmed along with garage and my kitchen leading into the snooker room.

    Indeed I am, not one of my favourite events. I'm busy this coming week playing in a pro-am tournament. Give me the peace of a "proper" snooker match. Not this roudy shennanigan. Still it's kind of snooker!

    Rab, I so admire your Scottish tenacity. 104 miles for me (all inside a warm snooker room) love the pics.

    I will add this though. During the last General Election. The BBC decided to cover it every evening at 6.30pm half hour programme presented from DC by Katy Kay. It ran from the Summer months up to inauguration day. So many folks (like me) were so fascinated the Beeb decided to extend the...

    I'm English and not going there. I've no right to comment on your politics.

    Thought it may have been a section of Trump's wall. Very nice pics.

    Ebikemotion x35 speed limiter "fix"

    Ride in East Yorkshire, rolling roads. No long climbs, but can be short and steep. Around 10% a typical 55k ride will account for 1000 feet of climbing. Never really use above level 1 assist.

    How well did you do in January?

    True Steve, but winter sure makes you appreciate the better months. Enjoy your new riding area.
