o.k. so I've tried several saddles for my "girls". Anyone in love with the saddle they ride?? Something they find comfortable for long rides up to 120 miles. I'm open to some suggestions. Thanks.

Adamo Typhoon. Standard Adamo style saddle with gel. Love it.

Cobb V-Flow Plus. Started with the Max, but it was a bit too wide. The Plus suits me perfectly - and they have a 180 day return policy.

Specialized Ariel. Technically a MTB saddle, works for me on my road bike. (heavier but more padded than the Jett).

Do a search for saddles. There have been many threads on this.

Another vote for Cobb V-Flow Plus.

x3. But it's "okay" as there is a lot of pressure on the areas around the cut out. I'm actually more comfortable on my road saddle (Butterfly Jet) but it doesn't transition to aero very well.

+1 for the Cobb Vflow saddle.
I second the Specialized Ariel, I've got three of them now (commuter, race bike, TT bike). I tried the Specialized Jett and found that the middle section was too narrow and just rubbed me raw. I'm more of a cyclist than a triathlete, so I can't vouch for it for 120 miles in a TT position, but it's very comfortable for long distance on a road bike and for shorter TTs. I'd imagine that it'd be fine for longer distance TTs/triathlons as well because the nose is decently padded.
