  1. I get along fine with my three b-17's all year, then I have to get on the rollers, about 5 mi. of
    this and things get numb. has any one had similar experience ? what did you do? I have some other
    saddles but the b-17 works so well, seems silly to try them?

    I assume you're not talking about the numbness of the mind that sets in after an hour on the
    rollers :-)

    I don't have B-17s, but experience the same problem. I think it has to do with the fact that you
    rarely change position. Try get out of the saddle every now and again - if possible without falling
    off the rollers :-) That does the trick for me.

    No, he's probably talking about the numbness of the mind that sets in after an hour of reading
    threads such as "Peace themed jerseys", "If everybody would drive geo metros" and "Bicycle police
    officer on bicycle hit".

    There may be a slight chance that we could maybe talk just a little bit about bicycles here...no,
    that's silly, nevermind.

    Now, now. This is the cold season. Between roller-induced numbness/dumbness and frozen synapses,
    this is what should be expected :-) Got to go and get my dose of roller-numbness for today. After
    all a bad day biking (even indoors) is still better than a good day at work.
