    another reason not to wear cotton

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    Had a great ride this weekend.

    My skort and knickers were dirty, so I wore saggy-baggy too-big lycra shorts. Well, they looked awful so I put my cotton Zoic capris on over them.

    I rode hard and sweated a lot.

    I ended up looking like I'd wet my pants.

    Not so good. Don't do what I did. I'm washing bike laundry now. (and now I have TWO skorts!)

    Oh my goodness. LOL 99 percent of the time, I wash up my biking clothes the same day after I wear them. Of course it's still 95 degrees here lately and it's because I don't want the stinky stuff laying around and I wouldn't dare let them dry out and wear them twice. LOL

    Maybe once we get cooler weather I will think differently.

    More cotton woes...

    I wore a cotton tampon this morning (period) and usually I tuck the string in if I'm biking, but it was not tucked in -and I wondered why I felt irritated down there during my ride...wayward string interference!
