Advantages: Great fun to watch Disadvantages: A bit too obscure at times
Blazing Saddles was first released in 1974 and directed by Mel Brooks. I saw this film a good few years ago and loved it the moment I saw it. It isn't a typical cowboy movie like you first expect when it begins and truly is a pleasure to watch. For this reason, this DVD was another one that I asked for at Christmas time and another that I am thankful to have received.
Blazing Saddles tells the seemingly simple story of how a railroad is bound to run right through the town of Rock Ridge and that once it does land there will be worth an absolute fortune.

saddle. Along as it is looked after, it should remain comfortable throughout it?s life. If anything leather saddles get more comfortable as they get older.
The Brooks Experience
The B17 comes in a variety of different flavours, including a narrow or a standard version, copper or normal rivets, a variety of different colours and even a titanium railed version. I opted for the narrow version, which is supposedly for more sportive riders. I went for the narrow simply because the width was closest to what I ride already.
The saddle arrived in a rather neat looking box. I thought for a minute I was getting an expensive pair of shoes rather than a saddle. Out of the box there was a small dent in the leather near one of the rivets, but it looked to be part of the leather rather than a manufacturing fault. Otherwise the saddle looked to be ...
