London Sky Ride...
Hi,
I took the kids to the London sky ride today and they loved it. It was a great event and lots of fun Apart from it being a bit crowded at parts (and a tender behind) I really had fun. Its been the first time I have been on a bike in years, so definitly has motivated me to get out more on my bike (and buy a better seat) The kids are always out on their bikes so its time I joined them Anyone else go to one of the Sky Rides?

Organized rides are a lot of fun. There are no Sky rides close to the place where I live. I ride with our local ladies cycling club, very nice. And yes, a good saddle is a must. Also check out that application I mentioned earlier, it is fun and easy to use.

A couple of weeks ago in Aldi they were selling gel seat covers for bike seats because I got one for a neighbour. They go over your seat and have silicon gel inside, very comfortable on her bottom she says . They were 3.99 but maybe none left by now. Probably sold elsewhere too though
