Hi.

I had a Terry saddle. Like you, anything over 15-20 miles felt pretty uncomfortable.

I tried a million different kinds of shorts. Some were better than others, but none of them were great.

Then I switched out the Terry saddle and bought something called Selle San Marcos Lady Tri Stryke. It made such a great difference. With the new saddle, I can bike in almost any shorts. For 20-25 mile rides I will even bike in running shorts with no padding sometimes, and it is not a problem.

For longer rides I like the various Shebeest shorts the best. The mid-price SSS are a favorite. PI shorts feel a little bulky.

Sometimes the *saddle* is the problem.

Good luck!
