I'm with you on this one, on the all day or two day rides that I do here and there I use powder (as I do on long cycling rides). And speaking of cycling, I will wear a pair of padded cycling shorts (nice quality that breathe better and have less/better seams) , makes all the difference for me. Conditioning is key too, for me starting with shorter times and working up to longer rides is easier transition.

So for me it's powder, padded shorts and stop every 60-90 minutes to stretch, gas up if want, drink water (staying hydrated is key), hit restroom and just walk around for a few min.
