It all sounds familiar. I rode for 25 yrs. then was off the bike for 8 years. Got back on at 58. Everything hurt. It will take months to feel "right." I would suggest short rides frequently until your body starts to "break in." Eventually you may decide a new saddle is in order but you won't know for sure initially. The word I use as a mantra is "patience."
