I've just became 59 and decided to give biking a serious/final try. Yesterday I rode 1.9 miles. The saddle still caused pain. I tried today. Almost at the end of my ride (around the block of my neighbor), I found a sweet spot in my saddle that if I sit a little bit toward the back of the saddle, there is no pain. I was very encouraged and decided to circle my neighborhood a second time. So I rode 3.67 miles today and just joined the forum.

Most cyclists go thru several saddles from various manufacturers and different models before they find the right one.
