Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Nice bike, I love my Domane. Now there is something very wrong with that saddle for sure. Certainly you can see it is like no other saddle out there except perhaps one you've seen on a horse.

Wow, just wow, on the Sella Anatomica. I have a couple, including an X, and I know they stretch, but did you intentionally soak it in water or something else to make it stretch that much, or did it take that shape with age?

No, just a about 9 months of riding on it. Feels pretty comfortable, kinda hate to mess with it.
