Hi!
My sister and I are cycing from London to Sydney in a year and Im just wondering about a saddle for this kind of trip...
We are leaving in 10 weeks and are now at the manic organising stage!
Any help would be great!
Thanks! kira :)

Kira -
It's really hard to make recommendations since everyone is different. The saddle I am happiest with - and the one I used on my 2002 cross-country (USA) trip is the Fizik Vitesse. I tried a number of saddles before settling on that one, including a Specialized saddle and 2 Terry saddles (one with a cut-out and one without) - I absolutely hated all of those, and the Vitesse felt right from the very beginning. Too bad that wasn't the first saddle I tried... You'll also find people who love Terry saddles and hate my choice. The only thing to do is to try them! See if you can find a bike shop that has a stock of saddles that you can borrow to see if you like them.
And there are a few other threads here with discussions about saddles - you might find some good tips there as well.
