Dec 2 RIDES

32 degrees,and Sunny here in the morning..burrrrrrrrrrrrr ,but no wind. I wear thermal underwear top ,and bottom, shorts ,and some long pants. I finally got some gloves that keep my hands warm (after about 6 miles or so). I have had the same pair of shorts since August. I wash them every other time in the washing machine I think that is the reason my crotch feels like its being rubbed raw. They were some cheap Nike ones I bought when I first bought a bike. What is the best brand to get????? Good padding on the front top. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh , I rode 27 miles.

Do you want shorts, knicker/capris, or long tights?

[suzieqtwa]

Shorts...I wear something over them.

I don't wear shorts- I have better advice about knickers or long tights. Hey, I think you should call TE shop up and talk with the women there about what you need. But if i were you, and only were going to buy ONE pair of shorts- I'd make sure they were the best I could get. TE employees know their shorts!

Personally I love my Sugoi RS Flex shorts that everyone around here recommended.

barb, who has not ridden outdoors for several weeks...

Sugoi Flex Shorts - great.

Another pair though, which I have really, really like, both for color (another thing I fancy) and comfort....the Louis Garneau power shorts. Yeap, they are expensive, but the fabric is great, they are cool, colorful, and the chamois is the real deal, very substantial.

Today's ride? blah blah it was cool, etc. Fun part though, was steamrolling a group of 4 guys on a long climb.

Better still? heh, I was wearing my new TE Hill Slug jersey. That'll show'em!
