Bikes: Ritchey P-series prototype, Diamondback, Nishiki Triathelon Pro.

Padded riding shorts.
And when not riding, get spankings for being lazy, this is good motivation and it toughens your posterior.
Pitching the saddle can distribite the weight better, mine is slightly tilted up in front, this lessens the pressure on the bones underside, and for hand\palm pressure reduction.
Some people can't stand pressure foreward, cutouts and tilting the saddle nose down works.
Riding a bike with the seat too low\very upright fashion will have more weight on the saddle.
I've tried several styles of seat and prefer a scoop at the back, it seems easier to adjust your position on the saddle when riding hours or moving around on difficult terrain.
This is saddle #6, finally something that works for me..ahhhhh.
