Over the years I've seen various posts here praising the virtures of riding underwear. From what I've read, they're like bicycling shorts, but without the extra padding. Spike mentioned Underarmor. Anyone have other recommendations? So far the best price I've seen online is about $40. Anyone know of somewhere w/ better prices?
Thanks,
Bill

I just use some regular Hanes boxer/briefs(like these: http://www.boxerbriefs.com/eshop/10Browse.asp ). they eliminate sitting on the seem, which seem to cause most of the problems?? On my dirtbike I wear bike shorts, but that's a whole different application!!

For long rides of a day or more I sometimes wear Cycling Shorts that have the padding. It keeps me from getting monkey butt. The only down side is they don't have a fly.

Here is a link for some that are on sale

Jimmy Buffett "I don't cut my hair, don't wear underwear"!

Last year when I rode to Colorado, (3 days at 450 miles a day) ..
I bought a pair of riding shorts at:

www.aerostich.com

I squirmed in my seat all the way there. On my trip home, I put those suckers in my bag, put on a pair of boxers, and Iron butted it home. To me, I was way more comfortable without them than with.
Your experience may vary.......

Yep, being an avid cyclist I've worm those bike shorts for many years.
They do work pretty good for long trips on the motorcycle as well.

No doubt, if you're not used to wearing them, they do feel kinda funky. But once you break them in they an offer alot of added comfort.

The spandex also acts as a compression short which aides in holding off muscle fatigue in your thighs.

Go to Target, they have the generic underarmour there I think they call it active wear. It is just as good as underarmour IMO, and is only $15 for the shorts. They work GREAT while I'm on a long trip and wouldn't go on one without them!

As Johnny Cash used to say, "Darlin' I don't wear underwear".

Except maybe in cold weather.

Depends how long you are in the saddle? I prefer to stay as comfy as possible, but then not everyone tours on a sportbike either, as Crew say's "opinions vary"

I like to keep my short trips as challenging as my long rides, so I have a few pair of coarse, unbrushed woolen underwear for the shorter trips. All of a sudden those short afternoon jaunts feel as long as an 800-mile marathon, especially on those hot 85+ degree sweaty days.

Try silk. They not only make you more comfortable, they also make you feel purty. Oh, don't take a leak at any biker bars while wearing them. You might end up exiting on your bum.

 

[pepsX]

ya'll are kidding right? just put on your big girl panties and ride it like you stole it.
