Love this thread. Came in for a quick look, but couldn't resist reading the lot. I have to say I've tried padded cycling shorts and found them utterly hellish. My road bike saddle is a Bontrager Inform R saddle, and I really like it. The bike shop put that on in place of a men's saddle (i've got the men's bike) and though I thought I might need to change it, it has been fine so far. Only hurt when I managed to fall off last week, and totally banged my lady garden on the seat on the way down

ow ow ow ow ow. Funnily enough though, can feel the bruising more when sitting on a hard chair than on the saddle again! Anyway, enough about fannies and the like, I must get to bed!
Night all
