Hi Wannabe - Im with the girls go the cycling shorts. Dont worry about how you think they look because Im sure if you are like the rest of us you are your most severe critic. I was also a bit concerned when I started cycling (those old legs sure dont look like they use to) but if you have been to the local pool lately you will see that hey bike shorts hide a lot more sins then some of those bikinis.
