Folks,
I've just returned to bikes after a 15yr absence. I got plastered across Tottenham Court Rd by a foreign driver in a transit, whilst a bike courier. I ended up with both legs getting pinned so the bikes had to go. I'm now a fat old git who can't see his toes (amongst other things) unless bent forward so have returned in order to get rid of some of the lard.
I spent a few weeks trawling the forums, visiting Halfords and the other chains (what happened to the independent shops) and got so confused by all the new kit and terminology. I eventually went to Decathlon with the intention of buying the Tridan 3 racer but much preferred the F3 road bike.
I've now used it a few times for approx 10 miles each time and my bum is killing me. The saddle is cutting me in half. Can anyone suggest a saddle that won't reduce me to tears?
Thanks
