Use of Cycling skirts/skorts for older women?

[Catrin]

Interesting question, haven't thought about it before. I've no problem with lycra shorts - and most of my rides are from home to home, or from/to my car so that isn't a problem. The skort idea is interesting however if I were going to do something different (other than going into a store for a potty break)... if it were something that didn't wrinkle too easily and I had something on my bike in which I could carry it for the occasional ride - it might be nice to have a little wrap something.

Deskrider, I think it is about what makes you comfortable. There are people who will find problems with whatever we choose to ride in for all different sorts of reasons.

I love skorts and CYA skirts on the bike, and have several of them.

No-one has ever yelled "Hey, old lady, take it off!" so I guess they are socially acceptable.
