Yeah, I thought about this. I am fitted to the Madone but not to the Terry. I have to think about whether I can fit myself. Seat height is pretty easy for me to figure but the saddle rail position on the post is much more difficult.

I'll drop the pressure down to 75 and see how it feels. I just got to the Withlacoochee trail area in Florida and I'll try it out of the trail today. And bring and allen wrench to mess with my seat too.
