Every two years or so, we go on a spirit quest to find the best new saddles on the market. Every two years or so we are 1000 bucks more poor, but our ass still hurts at the end of the test. Part of that is because the perfect saddle already exists, and everyone is just trying to figure out if there is a secret ‘new’ design that will work better. They’ve been trying for 100 + years. The best saddles today are the ones that mimic Brooks saddles. Not from a materials standpoint, but from a shape standpoint. Good saddles have the following in common:

Firm to no padding for support. Think: If you have super soft insoles in your hiking boots, like if Dr Scholls got together with Jet Puff Marshmallows, you couldn’t do anything in those shoes except lounge around the house. Your bones would have no support for walking. Even foam shoes, like Crocs, are actually pretty firm and supportive. If you are not riding a Brooks, which is like Birkenstocks for your ass, then you should ride something like a WTB Silverado or Pure V, which is like Crocs for your ass. Which is to say that a saddle needs to be supportive before anything else, then it needs a good shape. The Crocs are just foam Birkenstocks, and both have a good shape that works with the material support your bone structure. Good saddles, unlike shoes, need a wide flat back, so your sit bones don’t hang down the sides of the saddle. Rounded back saddles are bad. If you are a worrier regarding crotch numbness, rounded saddles are your worst nightmare. Imagine walking around with a shoe that has a 5x higher than usual arch. You’d feel like you are on a painful teeter toter. Is there a secret connection between Tater Tots and Teeter Toters? I think yes. I’ve sent in a tip to Chanel Rion, to see what she can dig up.

Other good saddle traits: narrow neck for minimal chafing, durable materials, chromoly steel rails.

The Silverado is one of the few saddles that comes on bikes from the factory that you don’t have to immediately junk. If you want a bit more padding, or a bit wider of saddle, something more like the Brooks Professional, get the Pure V.

We carry these saddles in three variations, two of which are exclusive to our friend Blue Lug, in Tokyo. Green camo, so you can sneak up on your oat milk latte, and Vegan friendly faux leather brown. The latter pairs well with Brooks Microfiber tape in antique brown. As with any saddle, set it up with your bike on a level surface. Steal your roommate’s level and level the saddle tip to tip. There should be a slight dip in the middle after ya do that.

These saddles have a slight cut away for pressure relief, but it’s just there because that’s a trend that won’t die. You don’t need the cut out if your bars in the right spot, but you also won’t feel it, if the bars are high enough.

Can't stop laughing
Format: Hardcover
These are amazing tales from Turkey. Beautiful narration of several very old tales. They bring the Hoja back to life. My kids and I thoroughly enjoy the stories and can't stop laughing as we read the tales again and again. The illustrations are superb.

Muslim Folktales of a Wise but Silly Teacher
Format: Hardcover
Reason for Reading: I love legends, folklore and the like. This was an area completely unknown to me so I was intrigued to read these tales. These stories come from Turkey and are Muslim tales of a wise man, a trickster and a fool all wrapped up in the same person. Hoji is a Muslim teacher, some respect him others don't. Historically, Nasrudin Hoja (who goes by a host of different spellings) is considered an actual man who may have lived in the 1200s, his funny tales with messages have been handed down and built upon all over the middle east and across Asia, even reaching as far as China. But this book sticks with the tales told in Turkey, centered on the then village of Aksehir. There are ten folktales presented here, each is short (only a few pages long) and Hoji while being a wise man is really very silly indeed. Children should find these stories humorous and laugh at the solutions Hoji comes up with to his, or others, troubles. He is always fair and stuck-up people will get pulled back down to reality. Hoji is a winner for the common folk and isn't afraid to take on a man of much greater status than himself. Hoji is also a trickster and likes to cause a little trouble by bringing someone back down to earth and showing him he is not above other people just because he has money or position. Then there is Hoji the fool, who will listens to what people tell him and in the end it is he who has been made a fool of, but still a lesson is being taught. Most of the stories have a lesson attached to them though they are not always blatantly obvious and do require you to think what the message of the story is. A couple, I think were just silly stories, as I could not find a message hidden in them at all. The book is told in simple language and as I said the stories are short so I'm recommending this for lower elementary children or as a read-aloud to younger children of any age. The illustrations are beautiful. Capturing the art of Turkish design in bold, bright cartoon-ish style pictures which seem to be done in a mixed-media format and, if I'm not mistaken, that includes a tad of collage as well. This is a fun introduction to a new cultural folktale that kids are sure to have fun with.

This book is so cute
Format: Hardcover
I absolutely love this book series about the squirrel, discovering different seasons and aspect of change of nature. Is just enough sassiness and educational material that my child is interested in this story. The illustrations are very vivid and bright. Highly recommend any book in this series.
