Suggestions on Bike Shorts?

[bellissima]

So I did some research, as suggested, on how to measure your sit bones. I did it a few times to make sure the measurements were correct...and they were. My bones (center to center) are 5.5" inches apart. I rushed down stairs and measured the widest point of the seat. It was about 5".

Now try to find a shop that has a test saddle program, that way you can try several saddles and find the one that works best.
