Currently using the saddle which came with the bike. It's a Trek 7.2 FX.
Only been cycling in for a couple of weeks, I realise it'll be easier and hurt less over time.
Aldi, hmm interesting, not sure where the closest one to me is, but I'll take a look. Is all the gear pretty much of a muchness (regarding shorts?) I'd be prepared to pay a bit more for something which is much more comfortable, as I'm going to be in the saddle for a couple of hours a day....
Cheers...
