In homage to my love for the mountains, I’ve breathed new life into a few old wool sweaters, giving them a second act as a plush mountain pillow. But fear not if you haven’t got a pile of old knits to work with – any soft woolen or felt fabric will work a treat. And for those seeking a touch of opulence, why not venture into the realm of velvet?

The Daway bike seat is approximately 27cm wide – by far the widest seat we tested – which meant there was no chance it was fitting on our narrow mountain bike seat, so it lost points for versatility. However, for our home exercise bike and spin sessions, it was ideal. Women generally prefer more padding in their mountain bike saddles since foam-based saddle covers like this are better for long rides. The foam-padded seats also provide more flexibility depending upon the amount and type of foam used within the saddle shell and cover. Feature 3.
