It's been a few weeks since my trip from NorCal to LA and back up the PCH (any more acronyms I can think of, I'll be sure to add later) - just wanted to give praise to an alternative seat/comfort option. I was in Cycle Gear the day before my trip and inquired about some type of gel seat pad for touring, etc... They had this "Pro Pad" for about $70 - and I figured that I could give it a whirl and return it upon getting back... well, for any of you who have experienced severe a(ss)trophy or the wonderful sensation of peeling down your leathers and having the same pee pressure of, say, a leaky faucet - I give you the Pro Pad! A great investment for the long haul, and relatively (much) less expensive than other, permanent alternatives...:
