BMX saddle?
Cheap ($39+), light (175G), in this case, green. Definitively un-Brooks, but the shape looks right. Any reason not to use these on a road bike?

Cateye rear light - saddle rail mount
I've been struggling over the years to come up with a good way for mounting the rear light on my road bike. I always have a saddle bag on the bike, so a light on the seatpost isn't an option. I don't really want to put a light on a seat stay, and I don't really want a light on my helmet. I had a light mounted on the saddlebag, but eventually it fell off.
I was reading a review of Cateye's new rear lights, and I noticed that there's a saddle rail mount option! From the picture, it seemed like I could get away with using this mount and keeping my saddlebag.
Berkshire Ride - A Room Avail in Wainwright Inn May 24-27 3 Nights
My husband and I are not going to be able to make it to the Berkshire Ride this year but have a reservation in Wainwright Inn (Mr. Pope Room) in downtown Great Barrington for 3 nights from May 24th. The rate is $189/night + tax.
This is one of the nicest B&B in Gr. Barrington and is very popular among NYCC riders. If you're interested, please contact me by April 30th before I give up this room. [email protected]

city bans motorized bikes
Five Boro Bike Tour security measures - backpacks and hydration packs banned
via Jen Benepe:
http://cyclistsinternational.com/?p=4836
"As part of the new plan cyclists will not be allowed to bring backpacks, or any other types of bags that attach to the bicycle or person riding that are larger than 12 x 7 x 5 inches, the equivalent more or less of a fanny pack. Hydration packs will also not be allowed, nor will saddlebags, either those that attach to the front or the back."
I know this doesn't apply to most of us, but if you're riding in it, be warned.
Is there a benefit to stretching? It's a stretch.
This has great appeal to me, a sloth, who may--may--occasionally stretch the truth, but nothing else:
