Today I bought a Schwinn No-Stress bike seat, and a rat trap kind of thing that is suspended off the seat post. Both products were a complete and utter fail. After one hours' trial, both are back in the shopping bag, ready for a refund.
The good news is that the test ride took me to Kensington where I met all kinds of my favorite knitters, including Mrs. Tiano. We had fun, and were probably much quieter than the restaurant had any right to expect. We pretended it was Sandra's birthday, and they gave her deep fried ice cream.
Life is good.

hey Annie,
Try the Terry Liberator - or any of the seats from Terry (they even have one called the "Annie") You can get it at Bow Cycle or MEC.

Sounds more like a real Knit in Public Day than Saturday ;)
Check out MEC, the staff there are really well informed. I've had to buy a lot of Outdoor gear this year and they have been fantastic. I didn't know how much bike gear they had until last time I was in there.
Sorry to hear about the bike stuff not working out, but now you have more information and will be more likely to get stuff you like.
