    Special (?)Shorts.....

    I have been riding for about 2 years and unfortuantely my skin has come to react to the Lycra/Spandex. I t has gotten to the point where it is unbearable ( I will spare you the details but imagine cracked, scaly itchy skin and sweating on top!)

    I continue to take the medical intervention route, however, I still want to bike. I am looking for shorts with a cotton lining and some wicking capability via the shell. It appeares that the ZOIC co. has such a material but I can't find actual clothing made from it

    Has anybody else run into this problem? Do you know where I can get shorts and tops lined with cotton?

    Any thoughts/help/info would be greatly appreciated.

    I have a pair of cotton liners with the chamois pad - are you currently using something like that?........I haven't seen anything like your describing but I'll keep an eye out (surfs the net @ work!)
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"
