This old, fat man bikes an average 5 miles, with up to 1200 feet in elevation change, in the Forest daily, some of it actually on the bike.
That doesn't translate well to road biking because Mt Biking you're out of the saddle a lot more, but I use a Specialized Sonoma Gel which is slotted for the peri--whatsis bones and kinda not too narrow not to wide. And it's <$50 bucks.
I imagine you get to go up a lot of hills in your area; do it standing. Coast standing. Ride no hands as much as possible, it moves you forward on your seat. On steep downhills move your butt behind and off the seat, lowering your center of gravity as well as giving your prostate a break.
Stop at every bar and bakery along the way.
