Embarrasing bike pants question
Do I need a jock or cup under bicycle shorts. If I go naked I get the
David Lee Roth effect -- big time, pardon the pun. Even with a jock ... Are the pants just too small then? |

They're called "pickle pants" for a reason. If you're embarassed put a
sock in there to increase the bulge. |

You can get special undershorts made from nice wicking material that fit bike shorts nicely and increase your emotional comfort level. I've had a guy yell at me (I'm in the southern US) "Does your momma know you wear them shorts?" from a front porch of a shotgun shack. I took it as a compliment. :P |

Fortunately I have the opposite problem. I'm walking around like I have
a zucchini in my pants. I don't see this only other bikers. How do they hide it? |

So, a jock is not the answer?

You probably aren't making as proud a statement as you think, anyway. Properly fitted black shorts don't present too sharp an outline as it is. Ron PS: stick with the black shorts. So Ron, what color shorts do you recommend? |

Not red. REF: http://www.davezilla.com/index.php?p=126 Chris Neary "Science, freedom, beauty, adventu what more could you ask of life? Bicycling combined all the elements I loved" - Adapted from a quotation by Charles Lindbergh |

... So Ron, what color shorts do you recommend? Not red. May I also argue against silver? My husband had a pair of silver bib shorts. I did a metric century with him in the rain, and the bike he was riding didn't have fenders. A great deal of muddy water got kicked up on to the rear of his shorts. Not only did the silver fabric turn transparent, but the mud looked like...well...it was not a pretty picture. -- Warm Regards, Claire Petersky Home of the meditative cyclist: http://home.earthlink.net/~cpetersky/Welcome.htm Personal page: http://www.geocities.com/cpetersky/ See the books I've set free at: http://bookcrossing.com/referral/Cpetersky |
