300 miles on the C-17 Brooks Cambium (rubber) Saddle

When the rubber meets the road… of something like that?  At 300 miles the Brooks Cambium feels like it did at 12.  Which is good and bad in its way.  Right out of the box it felt like a leather brooks after several hundred miles; the leather gets better the more miles you put in.  So far the Rubber stays the same.

Went for 30 decided to settle at 28… couldn’t… 31 miles in all.

I want to not feel bad if I can’t meet my goals.  I’m just not there yet.  I guess I just set my goals to low; since I can meet them if I try hard enough.  Perhaps if I had unrealistic expectations then it would not matter if I reach them.  One day I will be mature enough to look at things that way… just not there yet.
