shorts i wore for a 107 mile bike ride

I don't think the TE folks mind your plugging Terry's shorts, since TE sells them also. In fact, it's great that TE has that wide selection--at Terry, it's mostly Terry stuff (and I like a lot of Terry stuff, but not all, plus their prices aren't the best), but at TE, there are many brands to choose from.

So Mimi, where'd ya get those Ibex knickers from anyway? Here in FL, I wear knickers most of the winter.

I did see the Ibex shorts for sale on line (try Froogle) but my LBS ordered them and we got a discount because my husband is in a cycle club..
They are pricey; but I don't imagine they're going to wear out any time soon.
if i had a complaint it would be that the chamois isn't as substantial as in the Terry shorts

To clarify, the short I sold Mimi is the 2006 terry T-short with the flex chamois, not the 'ultimate chamois' and yes they are available for purchase right here at TE. I sold them cuz for me, the chamois is too thin, so it also shows how different we all are! But, lately I have been having issues no matter what chamois I wear, thin, thick, so maybe I need a brooks saddle like Mimi, or maybe I need estrogen, I just don't know. I just feel too much pressure on my girly bits during rides. I can tell I am not putting enough weight on my sit bones, but not sure what to do about it. Its happened more on vacation when I try to ride very aggresively to hold my husband's wheel, and hunker down in the drops to catch back up when I get dropped. My terry butterfly has worked for years, and the problem only started recently even though my position on my bike hadn't changed for a year, so its odd.
