Re: seat cover for rain?
In article <hNGdnb-sgJnKgsTVnZ2dnUVZ8tbinZ2d@posted.plusnet>, bugbear
<bugbear@trim_papermule.co.uk_trim> writes >I have a leather saddle on my commute bike, >and nowhere (under cover) at work to store it :-( I have a quick release pin on the tube end where the seat post goes and just take the post and Brooks saddle with me - to the pool changing room, shops, work, etc. I learned my lesson after having my first Brooks stolen from the bike which I'd parked in Poland Street car park, in Soho. If I have to leave the bike outside and it's raining, I have an old folded up plastic bag which I fasten over the tube end with an elastic band. The Brooks saddle cover mentioned elsewhere in this thread is rather a giveaway, and eminently nickable, even if you don't have a Brooks saddle under it. -- congokid Eating out in London?
