and the Fish Dr ROCKSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 20 miles ain't nothing to sneeze at my friend!! Well done!!
as for the saddle: is it a Bontrager?? You said Pilot and I know Bontragers supply most if not all the saddles for Treks. and if it helps any - I HATE Bontragers. I had it OFF my Trek MTB before I had even walked it out of the store! It hurt me even on the test ride! lol.......just think - if it wasn't for that crappy saddle, you might've done a 1/2 of a 1/2 century!

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"

Of course your sitbones don't hurt - all the pressure was on the girly bits!
I've never experienced the "bonty of death"
but I feel exactly the same way about the WTB line of saddles.
I'm a big fan of the Specialized Body Geometry saddles, FWIW. I did my longest ride yet for this year (a metric) yesterday. My sitbones are slightly tender but my girly bits feel totally and completely fine, as if I haven't even ridden at all.

I have a Specialized BG too and I never feel anything amiss on or when I get off the bike. (Max ride so far 22 miles so not the greatest test.) My LBS is owned by a woman and she recommended it. It rocks having a biker chick owner!
