What saddle do you ride?

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

Currently on a Toupe, will see how it goes.... Just took off SMP Lite 209 - what a beautiful saddle. Unfortunately it tortured my backside.

I'm rather surprised Ritchey only has 2 people on them. Are they just more on mountain trails?
