Jake's dad decided that, since I'm making a bike*, it would really only be logical for me to put a Brooks saddle on it. And then a package arrived in the mail from him. And it's a saddle with my name on it. How much cooler could it get?
Notice the copper rivets? COPPER RIVETS! On a bike seat!
*When I say I'm making a bike, what I mean is, I'm slowly buying, acquiring, receiving, and making pieces of a bike. Jake is slowly researching frame angles, tire sizes, and basket designs. Most likely, the actual fabrication of the bike won't happen until next semester, when I write a proposal and convince the school that it's a good idea for me to do an independent study in which I build a bicycle. Then I'll actually make it.
