Gear Talk / Comfy saddles

« on: May 13, 2009, 12:59:42 am »

Hey All,

I recently purchased a Trek 2.1 (very happy) and the Bontrager saddle, as many of you have pointed out in the past, is rubbish.  Could any of you recommend a decent saddle that wasn't particularly too expensive?  (i.e. Brooks etc.)  Thanks a bunch.

General Discussion / biking across america with diabetes

« on: March 27, 2009, 10:26:11 am »

Hey everyone,

I hate to use the cliche of 'get busy livin' or get busy dying', but I was recently diagnosed with type 1 diabetes and felt like I had to do something. What better way than to ride across this great land of ours while raising money in the hope of finding a cure. Now I realize there are inherent risks in cycling almost 4000 miles across the country, with or without having diabetes, but I was wondering if any one has accomplished this out there who could give me any advice on....... anything. Anything at all. Im going into this relatively "blind" and would appreciate any feedback any of you may have. Thank you in advance for your wisdom.
