This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

For real. No matter how much I rode when I was really into cycling, I always got saddle sore pretty bad by the end of the session. Dunno why bike seats are designed so poorly in regards to comfort.

I'd still love a bike-centric infrastructure though.

Try a bigger saddle, that made the difference for me.

Saddle comfort is highly dependent on the shape of the sit bones of the individual. Your local bike shop may have the tools required to measure them, to get you a properly fitted saddle.
