Some thoughts for the record, in no particular order. Specialized now has seats in different widths for different widths of sit bones (some stores, like mine actually have a fun memory foam pad to help measure your sit bones!) A lot of ppl swear by the WTB seats too, but you probably are looking for a cheap (i.e. free) fix. Make sure your saddle is properly adjusted. Again, it will cost some money, but you could also get a suspension seatpost. Do some Pilates. There is no real substitute for real riding. Do 'wall squats' hold your back against a wall with your legs at a 90 degree angle as long as you can--repeat as needed. Get cold weather gear and ride in the winter too. Have fun.
