Yes, my shorts are new, so I hope that was part of the problem. I already have the nose tilted up a smidge, and hope I won't need to tilt it up any further. I'm hoping I can get past the slipping problem because I had no after ride soreness at all for the first time ever.

My new B67 is slippery, while my 1 year old B67 isn't. Riding will help cut down on the slip factor. (I've ridden in cotton shorts and capris and jeans, which really do rough up the leather!) Multiple (like 5 or 6 or 10) applications of Proofhide help, too.
I did have to tip the nose up a bit on the new one, but not dramatically.
I think it also helps once your sit bones make their little dents in the leather, it seems like they just settle into place then and stay put better."If Americans want to live the American Dream, they should go to Denmark." - Richard Wilkinson
