What sorts of bikes are we all riding? I've got an old Trek that I use for both recreation and commuting, and it has served me quite well.

Soma Saga frame with Brooks saddle, albatross handlebars and Sun Tour derailleurs with bar end friction shifting and cantilever brakes. Built it to spec myself. Most comfortable ride I've had for touring. Wouldn't trade it for gold.

Sounds like a nice bike!

My saddle is the one that came with an old mountain bike of mine. It'll need replacing soon, and I'm leaning towards a Brooks Cambium. People say they're comfy.
