I'm sold on my new anatomica saddle. After starting over, re-measuring, and really tensioning the saddle, I've now dialed it in. My old legs are back and then some with no quad burn. My mph has actually increased as well as speeds on some hills. I'm not really obsessed by numbers - it's just that compared to the adjustment before, I want to make sure I'm getting as much forward motion with each pedal stroke. Now just a few micro-adjustments and future shorts purchases will probably have less chamois up front compared to the ones I have now.

What a feeling to have that saddle disappear. Yay ! I did a couple of evenings of hill intervals last week - I never minded hills too much but hills now are actually more comfortable. Today I was able to get in my first 40+ mile ride with the new adjustments. Comfortable all the way through, so much so I get into the zone - I have to remember to drink because I forget. Today's av speed and time was better yet. Interesting, around 42 miles my butt would bonk before my body. Now I might need to adjust the pacing for longer rides as I've never really body bonked before my butt did.
