Hey Rockinonahigh...I'm sure you'll find something that's comfortable to ride. Don't worry about saddles, they're easy to come by, especially the big fat gel leisure ones. There's no shame in riding a 'regular old cruiser'...it's still a bike and it really doesn't matter what you ride just so long as you're out and about and getting some fresh air and exercise. Have you looked on Craigs List or some such?

Yah Boo! It's rotten weather today so I'm not going to get many miles in unless the weather breaks. I'll take a short 2 and half mile hop to go see a mate for a brew and that's about it.
