My favorite thing about the Ryder is that it remains comfortable and in-place even during extended-wear sessions of 1-2+ hours. While other plugs would tend to slip out after 20 to 30 minutes of usage, the Ryder remains snug, secure, and almost undetectable to the wearer once they become accustomed to it.

The Ryder is made out of 100% pure silicone through and through, so it can be easily-sterilized. It's smooth and very firm with just enough give and flexibility to shape itself to your posterior.

The Ryder's shape is what first caught my eye and set it apart from its contenders. The tip is slightly wider than traditionally-shaped plugs, but this does not hinder insertion much in my experience. However, it does mean that once the tip is in you don't have that extended period of trying to work your way up to the "neck" of the plug. I would assume that it is this steeper taper along with the lengthened neck and flat base that makes the Ryder stay put as well as it does.

When I first began using my Ryder however, I was carrying about 80lbs more on my frame than I am now; and it seemed as though the base felt slightly-flimsy - like it might be in danger of slipping inside with the rest of the toy. This never occurred, thankfully and has not happened since the first few uses.

I normally use my Ryder after I've already freshened-up with my Colt Anal Douche. With just a dab of water-based lube on my rear and a little on the toy, I'll lay on my side with one leg up to slip it in. Once inside, the Ryder gives a wonderful filling sensation and stays put for up to hours at a time with no discomfort. It does an excellent job of keeping you warmed-up and ready for anal sex, and once your body has become accustomed to it, the Ryder makes for some very fun thrusting play.

If you're wearing the plug for more than 1-2 hours though, you will most likely need to rinse the toy off and re-apply lube. This is especially so when nature decides to call.

Since the Ryder is made of 100% silicone, it can be cleaned-off easily enough with mild soap and water or toy-cleansing wipes. It can even be sterilized with a 10% bleach solution or by boiling it in a pot of water.
