You ride 100KM in jeans without chafing?
- wink 9y agoLearn from MTB riders - padded lycra pants and some shorts on top :) Doesn't look completely ridiculous and still comfortable after 3h.
- rhizome 9y agoI'm a pot-bellied Fred who wears full spandex and I wouldn't have it any other way.
- wink 9y agoI applaud you, I just don't like it, so I'll compromise - I'm only judging my own looks :)
- rhizome 9y agoI don't doubt that it looks ridiculous, merely because the opinion is so widely held and expressed, but function dictates form in this instance.
- jacquesm 9y agoWell, you've got my vote. I merely wanted to point out that an expensive outfit is not a requirement to starting out cycling and that you can do some pretty good rides without. If it works for you then that's great, and I'm happy to see you cycling, whatever you're wearing. The activity is what matters. If you ever make it to my neck of the woods consider yourself invited for a trip.
- jacquesm 9y agoYes, absolutely no problem. Did it this Sunday, and many others besides. The only time I've had chafing issues was when doing a circle around the 'IJsselmeer' in one day. That was bad. But I was also peeing green and out for the count for the next day so enough time to heal up :)
