SERIOUSLY???!!! So, I decided to try to throw in the bicycle for some exercise this morning; the weather was nice, there was a cool breeze, all sounds good, right? WRONG!!! Now, I know my "tooshie" is smaller than it was - CONSIDERABLY smaller, but 1/2 way through my so called pleasure ride, I thought I was going to die! OUCH! So, after a bit of whining, my question is - Do they make a better seat??? Please, please, please say yes! (And I'm not expecting lazy boy quality here, but I don't want to hurt!) Thanks guys!

Hey robyn! Yes they do make a better seat!! I hope Shelly/Harris2 is on today and sees this because she is the link queen and can point you in the right direction. Don't give up on biking just yet because there is a fabulous seat you can buy. -Amy

I bought a bike but haven't ridden it much because of the heat and because it hurts. It is a LOT of work! I'm going to get back to it when it cools off.
FYI - I worked the Children's Center charity even "Spin Your Wheels" this morning. We were the rest stop for the 100-mile riders. Talk about buff! These peeps are serious riders! Their bikes were incredible and so was all of their gear. Made me feel so inferior! Not one of them had a basket or a bell on their bike! LOL!

I prefer a women's specific seat.....but you also have to do some butt building. Saddle time takes time to build-I'd start with 10 or 20 minute rides and see how that goes, then build up from there....cause you can get sore in places you don't want to.
I also like to wear padded shorts-it's funny, I wear mountain bike shorts (baggy) to ride on the street, and lyrca when I ride off road. On the road I want modesty, off the road I don't want anything that is going to grab a thorn or a branch.
