Before this winter I only wore women's shorts, and didn't understand why my hubby, a former bikestore salesman, kept telling me that he was trained to steer women away from shorts with a seam. How can even men put up with a seam up the middle? But these knickers are handmedowns, men's mediums that have thighs so slender they wouldn't come close to fitting on most male cyclists' legs. They fit me fine from calves to waist and since I'm not much of a cold weather rider, it seemed reasonable to take 'em instead of investing in new fleecelined knickers of my own. But...ow!
