>>1632356>If you ride in jeans you'll get saddle sores! You'll be chafed to death!I am finding this to be inaccurate. Maybe it depends on your underwear? I wear nice Calvin Klein active boxers, super comfy. I ride in boot cut jeans. The other day I rode 40 miles in very hilly terrain. My ass is fine. I've been consistently riding 25+ miles every other day for the past few weeks in boot cut jeans.
At what point will my ass develop saddle sores? At what point will this chafing occur?
I think lycra spandex is more about some autistic obsession with maximum aerodynamics than anything. People want to look like morons just so they can reduce their exertion by a few watts.
Bicycles are the conveyance of the everyman. If you have to wear a special skin tight suit to ride a bike you're doing it wrong.
