    And for you men lurking out there...we KNOW you are!

    The man I met who wore one said the one that hit above his knees was perfect. The longer one got caught in his brakes and brought the bike to a dead stop.

    I didn't ask what he wore under it...

    I didn't have any trouble riding in a skort. It felt weird at first, but I got used to the flapping behind me. I agree with Denise; I would rather buy the unpadded wrapper to put on over shorts if i ever was in a place where I felt uncomfortable in shorts. So far, that has only happened once, in Edgartown, on Martha's Vineyard, though I'm pretty sure the people were staring more at my husband's shorts, matching jersey, socks, and sandals, rather than mine.

    I also like the wrapper because I can wear it over my favorite pair of shorts and I didn't like the Terry shorts. I've also picked up tennis skirts, which are fairly cheap and come in all sorts of colors and lengths and wear those over my bike shorts. Just make sure they don't have a mesh liner or shorts under them.

    That's a great site! I like skorts because they usually come in a color other than black, but if the chamois in the short isn't right, well, so much for that. The wrapper really is the better solution.

    I couldn't find a length on those tennis skirts. Do you know about how long they are? Thanks!
