Right then.....without getting too personal, I went for a ride yesterday - 20 miles (ish) off road, but not 'hard off road' and having just gone more towards XC/All Mountain riding due to a DH accident, I am not used to putting in more than a few hundred yards 'on the saddle' and found out that it can be quite uncomfortable! Granted I was wearing my standard issue shorts (not cycling shorts), but still.....this was really uncomfortable!

So the questions are:

1. I have a Syncros Saddle currently, can anyone recommend a good saddle that would be more comfortable?

2. I am going to invest in a pair of cycling shorts (baggy), as I believe that they are more comfortable due to the padding & seams etc. - so can anyone recommend some decent shorts (not lycra!)? (Money not an object).

I would realllllly appreciate you help!

Wear good lycra under your normal shorts?
