is a more solid saddle a better bet?
The old school 6-day method was a wooden block between the rail clamp and the saddle base. In all seriousness, the 250m Newport track generates less g than a titchy 6-day stadium track and you're not trying to out-sprint Patrick Sercu, so your road saddle will be fine.

Despite the inevitable late-30s spread, I don’t weight a huge amount. The carved brooks is quite springy though - is a more solid saddle a better bet?
