That helped, and I didn't seem to be sliding forward, but there was still some pressure. According to the fitter where I bought the bike, I'm not too far from the handlebar, but I'm beginning to doubt that.

I've ridden a lot this week, trying different saddles. Perhaps I'm sore and need to give myself time to toughen up, but I thought there wasn't supposed to be any pressure at all on the soft tissue.
