      Ahhh, the 130 will never die ;) I'll find a way to get those two working together - even if I have to build my own adjustable saddle!

      If it's anything like what I'm still fighting after 2 weeks, it's not man flu, but the real deal, and you won't want to get out of bed for a few days, never mind go out under the stars!
