If I stop riding for a couple of months due to snow; it takes me a couple of weeks to "adjust" to a bicycle saddle again. I have been off from work this week and riding every day; since Saturday morning I've ridden 230 miles and my fanny feels just fine; so there is hope that you will eventually get "aquainted" with the saddle, if not try another type. The real lesson is to not stop riding durring the snowy season.
