Back with the Saddle


In a stroke of good luck I snagged a Brooks B66 saddle today off UsedVictoria.  The seller was close enough for me to ride over there (unfortunately, they lived over a steep hill, but I managed)

The B66 is one of Brooks' most popular saddles - this is a good example of an old worn-in one.  It has proper big springs and is suitable for an upright (comfortable!) riding position.

I will need to get some Proofide for it before pressing it into service - as original - on the Raleigh Superbe hanging in the garage.
