I have a old saddle that is the most comfortable saddle I own, I can ride for hours in it..the only problem is it is a hard seat (no cushion at all) and is so darn slipperey. What can a person do (other than putting velcro on saddle and seat of my pants) to keep from slipping in the saddle??
I also have a new saddle that is very comfortable and want to use that one more but it is VERY stiff.. what does a person use to soften the leather that hangs and holds the stirrups (don't know the correct name for it sorry). After riding for awhile my knees get sore and I am guessing it is from the stiff leather and trying to keep the stirrup turned outward. What is the best way to break in a new saddle???
Thanks Cathy
