Everything is going nicely except my ischial tuberosities (sit bones) are sore after a 40 mile ride. Not sure if the saddle (seat) is to far forward or is the wrong width. Did a bit of measuring between the old bike and the new bike. Measured the distance between the Specialized Body Geometry Avatar saddle on the old bike and the saddle that came with the new bike and the ischial tuberosities measurement is the same. However the distance between the the widest part of the saddle and the handlebars is two inches shorter on the new bike so I may not be sitting the same. Should I back up the seat or try a new one. I guess I should ask several bike shops what they would suggest. Oh crap there is a third possibility the new saddle may be to soft.
