I highly recommend wearing padded shorts. I never get on my bike without my bike shorts - as far as I'm concerned no ride is too short to need the right level of comfort.

And I hate to tell you this, but cushy seats are not always comfortable. You'll need to find a combination of the right saddle and the right shorts for the most comfort for you.
