Got to get out a bit today. Not the full day I wanted because it’s very thick smoke all the sudden and I didn't want to expose myself too long.

Rode for about 40 minutes. Definitely way better on the butt than the road bike seat. It was actually under my sitbones. Experimented shifting my weight different places. The best weight shift; was if I were to put more weight on either side on my butt. I’m sure someone here knows what that means. The nosedown didn’t feel weird. But it may be because of my weight and the springs. Might have levelled it off a bit. Felt the most comfortable upright when I leaned back with no hands. Not the seat so much, it felt pretty similar, but just the position and the way the weight on my spine felt. I might change the bars to more upright for the season or until I drop some weight. My arms were feeling it more than anything, leaning forward holding myself up. Plus I have an elbow injury I’m waiting for a doctor on.

All in all the seat felt not bad. Not the best ever but bearable in comparison. The last seat I only rode about 10 minutes and was in pain for a couple weeks almost.

Can’t wait to get a real day in and really test it out!
