Subject: [CR]Informal Saddle Survey results

List- as some of you may recall, not long ago, I took an informal survey of the group to get an idea of what many of us ride. I found the results intriguing and figured that maybe someone else was also curious. I provide them here. But first, the Disclaimers: Only 28 people responded, of those many listed more than one saddle. Several of the saddles are Off Topic, but I did not label them as such. Brooks was by far the leader and I had no idea there were so many models available. Ditto for Ideale, which I was told by several of you, is More Comfortable than Brooks, hmmmm. You can see that the Turbo saddle was also rather popular, but I was a bit surprised by the 4 of you that listed the Selle Regal saddle, ( are the rest of us missing something?) Thanks to all that replied. Cheers, Dave Anderson Cut Bank MT
