    I have a motorcycle saddle that has rather square corners and it definitely cuts into me (in this case, in the upper rear of my thighs, but it's the concept, not the particular location, I'm going for). Really hard and painfully after more than a couple of hours - gotta replace that thing.

    Between me and the saddle, I wear compression shorts under motorcycling pants.

    no numbness. Like my other brooks, it disappears beneath me but when there are bumps it is less punishing and it is still not broken in yet (no sit bone dents yet)
