They say this is it, this is the saddle, the one to use if you plan to ride silly long distances. Anatomical Seat: the seat moves with your body as you ride, it meshes to your movement and has a perfectly designed space right down the center of the saddle which is geared to relieve pressure. I bought a seat with a slit down the center at about mile 400 on my trip across the country.  If you've never had a seat with a slit similar to this, it can make a world of difference. Selle Anatomica was created by Tom Milton and he was generous enough to donate a seat for the ride. Tom spent a career around cars, fixing up almost any car you can imagine and eventually invented the Selle Anatomica. In 2007 he did the Paris Brest Paris, a 750 mile ride over about 4 days. That is some serious bike riding.

The saddle gets rave reviews from everyone that uses it and I can tell you from just a quick ride down the street, it's going to be special. I look forward to taking it out on a long training ride here in the next couple days. I'll let you know how it is. Thanks again to Tom Milton and Selle Anatomica for their support!

    Do what?

    I turn 30 this April 2010. To ring in the new decade I plan to ride my bike for 30 hours straight raising funds for a great organization.

    North Carolina to San Francisco
    The summer of 2007 I bicycled across the country with my college roommate Brent, from the coast of North Carolina to San Francisco, where I live now. We raised $11,500 for the Lance Armstrong Foundation in the process: www.biketripblog.com
