ha, i wish i would have known about the alternative loosening and tightening before i started playing with it. The good news is that I figured it out. I also moved the seat forward a little because i thought might be too much. Then I just read that neck and shoulder soreness could be caused by saddle too far forward....I'll see what happens on my ride this afternoon.

With the two-bolt fore and aft configuration you need to loosen the front bolt half a turn, tighten the rear bolt half a turn, loosen the front, tighten the rear, and so on. I use a carpenter's level but you can also use a smart phone if you take a book or something similar that will cover the whole saddle front to back.
