Saturday's Bicycle Ride

Saturday morning I rode down to Cadboro Bay to road-test my new bicycle seat.

It's a Raleigh Air Pump seat ($69) which adjusts by using the built-in pump or relief valve.

Fitting a new bicycle seat is always a challenge (I've changed three now) because nothing is standardized.

Oh, each manufacturer states theirs is standard but the three I've changed are all different.

The spacing of the seat rails and the diameter of the seat post adapter are the main two variables — but I got it to work.

Update: This seat did NOT pass the test. Bought another one.
