The only time saddles were ever mentioned was when you were doing long distances.
The guys who used to ride the brookes saddles used to also be the same guys still wearing the old woollen jerseys!!!!!!! (sorry couldn't resit)
Exactly, and they are the same old boys who know best. They have probably tried all of the 'fads' and always gone back to the best
