This is EXACTLY what happens to me with the elastic. I'm not large, but my waist is about 10 or 11 inches smaller than my hips. When I start my ride, I have the jersey pulled down to my hips. I ride a road bike with drops, not upright bars, and when I get off the bike the jersey has slid it's way up the lycra shorts and is at my waist! I don't see that happen to the guys, but then, they don't have curves either.Originally Posted by bmccasland
But if they're going to put elastic in the hem of the jersey, the least they could do is have some sort of non-slip type (like on hems of riding shorts), so there's a chance the jersey doesn't work it's way up to my waist. I'm a woman with curves too...
