    Ahhh...you have the higher end shorts. I wish the photos on their site were better so that I could compare the entry level and higher end shorts. I like my DH's bib shorts with the razor leg, but I don't think they offer that on standard shorts and I hate bibs.

    Oh - sorry! I actually have the bibs, as I hate shorts . With a long torso, my jerseys always ride, and I get the awesome lower back sunburn... The bibs are just so much more comfy for me - all I wear now no matter the brand. The other great thing about them for me is that they don't bind at my waist. I just looked up and the bibs are the CS Edge with Flatlock stitching and the Performance chamois. I also ended up with the CS Air Lite jersey, which is awesome on hot days - a bit lighter weight than the regular CS jersey.

    I was also thinking last night about your comment for layering under the jacket for races when it's really cold. Be careful about this! I DO NOT EVER wear a wind layer when racing, even in temps down to 8 degrees (yes, it was this cold at Worlds this year ). If I have a wind layer, I over heat, and then end up really cold because I am wet. The best thing that has worked for me is to wear a base layer and then a heavy weight jersey on top. This is often enough even just doing a winter ride in temps as low as about 25.

    And we are thinking about fat bikes this winter . Time to sell the barely ever used anymore snowmobiles
