i biked the oregon coast with some friends. it was so fun, despite being a literal pain in the ass. also highly recommend! i was quite strong after just a week. the highlight of the summer for sure.

A good saddle helps with that. :) My preference is the Brooks B-17.

Such a heavy saddle but once you wear it in its the most comfortable ride out there.

I'm pretty sure I didn't wear mine in, rather it wore me in.

If you are touring with gear, that weight gain is a rounding error :)
