I went on a long road trip for work about 2 yrs ago, was gone for about a month, the plane rides killed me, when I returned my tail bone was VERY sore, to the point where I was using a standing desk for about 3-4 months because my desk chair hurt. well, during this time I wasn't riding at all, took about a year and change off because of residual pain. at any rate, back on the trainer these days and after I'm on for about half and hour I'm getting a little discomfort on the tailbone. I know part of this is because I haven't been on the bike much so the sit bones are getting acclimated again, I've put on more weight during the down time than I care to admit, and of course had two birthdays since.

as I'm easing back into this are their any things I should look for to help minimize that pain?? are there different saddles that might be more forgiving to the tailbone? currently using a Spec Romin Evo.

maybe there are some shorts that have a touch more padding in that area that might help??

prior to the initial tailbone "injury" I never had saddle pain that was of any concern and haven't adjust my fit since. is there a saddle adjustment I should make to possibly help with this?? I'd assume that raising the nose might have a touch of an effect but I end up with numb nuts if my saddle is perfectly level so I have mine adjusted with about a 1mm nose down tilt (difference between level and new position measured at the nose to the top tube) and that took care of the tingly junk. any thoughts??

Thanks!!!
