    Have you had a day's break away from cycling? Otherwise, you'll never be able to figure it out...

    Meanwhile check around for different saddles to try.. When you feel better, if it seems whatever saddle you're trying for even a short distance (ie. under 15 miles), if it feels sore and you're still sore several hrs. later, and even after adjusting the seat adjustment, then the saddle doesn't seem right.

    A short ride even up and down hills, you should not be saddle sore several hrs. later.

    I've rented bikes in different cities over the years for vacation times, when certain trips just didn't justify the cost of shipping my bike and so this is the basis of my opinion. I did tour with loaded panniers with such rented bikes for several days. Oh yea, I do own 3 bikes each with different saddles.
