E-picker of the day. This one is for you Dave Matthews! This man was playing his Fender while walking along near the Lions Gate bridge. He had a battery powered amplifier in his backpack and a long way to go .View attachment 36551

3rd day with my new B 17 saddle. Day 1, -15 km adjustment period= sore sitbones. Massaged with Mink oil. Day 2- 30K ,now only right sit bone sore. Noticed left side of saddle was softer than right so rubbed mink oil top and bottom of right side and spanked it repeatedly in that area with a drumstick when dry. Day 3 -50 K. No soreness at all! This handsome saddle fits me perfectly now and in tandem with the Thudbuster SD it manages the bumps with aplomb.

No its not a flea market it is a movie set wardrobe at Spanish banks. It was much too cold for beach umbrellas but that did not deter filming.

NOTE: I have reverted back to the Selle Royale Respiro. I find that my prostate prefers it. Dont get me wrong the B-17 is still great but now that the sitbones have nicely dimpled into the leather I find the middle of the saddle feels too close and irritates in the area of my prostatic plexus.

I should have known this would happen because I had felt the need to replace my drum throne with a Carmichael top long ago.

Miles of abstract patterns from caked mud on the playa. Endless crunching-fun when you ride over it.

The damn Beaver dammed up the bike trail again. He must hold a grudge against those of us with heavy Ebikes.
