Ok Lounge cyclists and bike enthusiasts - I need a recommendation...


Can anyone recommend a good bike seat that relieves pressure on the nether-regions?

I'm on vacation this week and took an 18-mile bike ride today on my (very basic) mountain bike. I love riding my bike on the beach, and would like to ride it more often while at home, but every time I do ride it I'm reminded how unbearably uncomfortable the seat is. As I'm on the wrong side of 35 now, the past few rides have been particularly excruciating, and I've been having issues with the circulation getting cut off to some very crucial areas...I'm sure you catch my drift.

I'm sure this is not an uncommon problem, so I'm guessing there are options to overcome this problem. A quick internet search turned up some "no nose" seats, but some of the ones I looked at had mixed reviews. Can any of you recommend a particular seat?
