downside to AR08

I think I'm just a stiff old git at the ripe old age of 22...I didnt feel cold in my tent, no colder than I would be in bed in the middle of the night at home when the windows are open

What if I got one of them thar comfty saddles you have pete?

Hmmm, maybe it's your posture then Matt. People often get backache if they're tense on the bike, but you must be relaxed I'm sure.

TBH, our saddle was more for looks than comfort as we never had any trouble with the standard seats. One other thought, your saddle hasn't been messed about with has it? Maybe a previous owner took some padding out.

I got home and the right side of my body ached and had pains in my wrist, elbow, and knee. Oh well, shouldn't have wellied it home and maybe broke it up a bit, but I was just thinking of a nice bath.

Downside of the AR08: everything else seems less fun!
