Technically, this is a "Comfort Test". I got the idea for a beaded seat cover from Stromtrooper. After our day on the bike Saturday, I made a special trip to WalMart the very next day for this. I am testing this out to see if there is a fix for the pain quotient to the bike on long rides. My daily commute runs are too short, even though this week I am taking a longer route in to drop off my oldest. Provided my new front tire arrives this week, I should have a new front tire and brake pads to scrub in this weekend. I figure a 200 mile trip on this seat will give me a good idea whether this can work or not.
