Hey wolfhound, got to tell you that I wasn't very happy after getting a seat with the gel insert. I was doing the Houston to Dallas thing every week and decided to try it. Bought a seat at a really with gel insert, and it did feel great when I first set on it, but after a while I just didn't like it all that much. It just started feeling mushy and there was a slight bit of movement between my but and the seat that was just annoying. Sold it on craigs list about a month after I bought it.
But as with everything, that is just one mans opinion.
Congrats on the new ride!
