Clothing
I have recently realized how important the proper fit of cycling clothing is. I departed on a one hour road ride the other day and it was very cold. I put on a long sleeve winter jersey and a sleeveless winter undershirt. Both high tech winter material and in size medium. I normally wear large but wanted my winter clothing to fit tight to avoid the flapping of wet, cold clothes against my skin. The material did it’s job too well and kept me overly warm and to add to the discomfort, I had on bib shorts that were also a size too small. You know what that means don’t you? Yep, Man Camel Toe! Sorry to be so descriptive but I’m trying to relay the importance of proper fit. My point is, be very sure your cloths fit right, and don’t over dress either. It can be just as uncomfortable as under dressing. My one hour ride felt like three hours.............just say no to man camel toe! Talk to ya, Andy
