I'm after recommendations for a saddle for my road bike the will be comfortable (if thats even possible) for a longish 3 day ride.

Currently have the standard cannondale saddle that came with a relatively entry level CAAD8 bike, I've been talked into doing a ride from London to Paris with work and think a change of saddle could make it a much better weekend.

So any recommendations? if it makes any difference I am probably the best part of 100kg which I'm sure doesn't help.

Whats wrong with your current saddle?
Saddles fine but my backside really starts to hurt after a 40+ mile ride and we're doing more than that for 3 days in a row,

I'm not sure if its inevitable when being sat on a saddle for that long or if it's a case of upgrading would make things more pleasant.
