My husband says that I have a coconut bottom. I assume that this is a compliment. No wonder my rear end hurts all the time just after 30 miles.

In term of shorts: I love my Assos shorts. They are expensive but they are worth every penny. It seem like its pad is a little too big at the beginning. But it absolutely saves on the long rides. I also like my Sugoi shorts as well and hate Pearl Izumis. They feel like diapers.
