Pooks: Baggy shorts/road shorts. I kept wearing shorts over the road shorts, until one day, I saw some guys out biking with road shorts, and hairy beer guts hanging out of unbuttoned cotton button-down shirts. I knew there was no way I could possibly look NEARLY that nasty, and if men can be out in public looking like that, then I could wear my bike shorts (I quickly discovered that one layer really is more comfortable than two!) in public -- when I'm biking! I tend to bring something to cover up in afterward for in case DH and friend decide food/drink is important post ride! (not that I'd let being in shorts and t--shirt stop me from eating and drinking!)

Guys in their "finery" can be very liberating!
