Dan's Boots and Saddles features those things, and there was a lot of variety! In Albuquerque, New Mexico [USA]. 20161004

Spot on with Blazing Saddles, as I think was the film, although at that time I mainly saw it as very funny.

Can we expect to see a trans fart scene?

Is Blazing Saddles racist? Not at all – it shines a torch on a nation undergoing a serious identity crisis

Mel Brooks’s unapologetically in-your-face western spoof broke all the rules and redefined satire – it is just as relevant for today’s polarised world

I was looking for a firmer replacement for the WTB Volt saddle and ordered a WTB Silverado. However, I didn't notice that it's longer (265mm vs 280mm)

I don't quite understand what advantages a longer saddle provides (I also see a modern trend towards shorter saddles). How serious of a mistake did I make? It's no longer possible to cancel the order.

I plan to use the saddle for uphill training sessions (the replacement was needed to improve power transfer).

Put locking #saddles on my $200 Kramer (now it's more like $400).
Too soon to tell whether they work, but I think they help. I hope I'm not wrong.
They need to unlock to adjust action or intonation, or to change strings.
Weren't too hard to put on.
