Buy a better seat. There are some very nice seats available that should do
the trick.

100 miles a day at 25 miles per hour (a reasonable speed), is only two hours
each way. I sometimes ride my bike (ordinary peddle type) as much as six or
eight hours on a typical Saturday or Sunday.

Question about batteries: Is the charge stored in the battery fluid? If I
were to swap the fluid of a charged battery, and a dead battery, would the
charge be transferred as well? If so, I could see a market for charging
stations that would provide fresh battery fluid.
