I tend to have a short sleeve top & bike shorts on. The one time I wore sleeveless, I ended up crashing and my arm & shoulder didn't do too well compared to my lycra covered legs.

I do end up unzipping my jersey all the way when I get hot, and I do end up finding smashed up small dead bugs down in the sports bra, so I'm getting it could look a little bit revealing if I'm leaning forward... But... erm, I get hot when riding.

If I'm riding in 58 degree weather - I don't have much more on then the short sleeve top & bike shorts.... just arm warmers & leg warmers, and I'm probably guaranteed to take those off within about 20 mins.


There have been times that I've been doing a tough hike in 20 degree weather and have ended up stripped to my sports bra and with my pants hitched/rolled up as high as I can get - which really is not a pretty sight and definitely not titillating anyone, but vanity be damned if I'm overheating and I need to get up a steep hill.
