Lots of people said to me before I set off make sure you get a nice soft saddle. As it turns out this is poor advice. Luckily my new bike cames with a Brooks Saddle, which is as hard as a rock!
http://www.brookssaddles.com/ This has proven to be the most comfortable saddle I have ever had. Some experienced cyclists say that you have to do at least 500 miles before it is worn in, but I have found mine to be comfortable from the beginning. It has now nicely moulded itself to fit by backside perfectly. Not bad for something that was invented in 1866.
A bit different to this saddle which is probably over 80 years old, which I saw on an old bike made in Ashford, Kent. This was in a Garden Centre in Cheshire, where I stopped for Brekkie
