If you are thinking of doing serious distances then get yourself an Airhawk inflatable cushion. Not cheap but I bought one for our run to Davos in Switzerland, and had no problems with doing 260 mile stints (1500 all in). Great bit of kit, mine was used with an Ancilotti clone.

i have a gel pad that I used for Davos. Not bad and about a quarter of the price of an air hawk.
340 miles was the longest ride, about 9 hours, and whilst not 'comfortable', it was bearable. Having said that I will be getting an air hawk to try.
One of our party had an air hawk and he was of the same consensus as me. Bearable but not comfortable.

As a point of reference, I also has a GTS and I would say that the airhawk/Ancilotti combo is more marginally comfortable but that is probably due to the fact that you can move around a fair bit on a lammy but with the GTS you are fairly limited.
