HappyMartin Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 (edited) Did a short tour from Daresalaam to Moz a few years back. Decided Lycra wasn't cool and the locals might get wound up about it so went the baddies route. It rained. A lot. For days. I will never forget the feeling of 38C with pouring rain and mud everywhere and in everything. Baggies clinging to my legs drenched in water and coated in mud. Never ever wore baggies ever again. I don't care who stares or says what. Edited July 17, 2014 by HappyMartin davetapson 1
davetapson Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 Baggies and tight lycra jersey? No. Just no. Brett and BarHugger 2
Bizkit031 Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 Quality and build of baggies have come a long way, I vote baggies all the way.Only one thing is they need to do some decent colors. Scotty P 1
porqui Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 Now if you really want to arrive you get yourself some white lycra's - the best and fastest. Those baggies are what I want but even more so is your OH - a rare find - one that just sommer buys you THREE pairs of baggies and you don't even need them. What else has she bought you? Bizkit031 1
T-Bob Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 (edited) These will be my next pair for sure... if I don't get my hands on the unwanted Enduras that the OP has... Edited July 17, 2014 by hellocolour Scotty P and BenReaper 2
Cyklon Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 Yup, it takes a special man to pull of the baggy look .... Raydek 1
Brett Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 I wear them cos you can put stuff in the pockets like car key or wrappers. Also mostly so I don't look like a clown walking into shops pre or post ride. Haha
Cyklon Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 But then it also takes special men to where lycra ... Bizkit031 1
dimsum Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 (edited) I vote baggies! I got a pair of red Royals from the UK They rock! I just wear any top with it. Sometimes a vest like this. Sometimes an eduro type top. Doesn't really matter as long as its not a bib! Edited July 17, 2014 by dimsum
gwhite Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 I picked up a pair of Tenn Burn MTB cycling shorts which I wear over my bibs and for R399 a pair I have been very surprised how comfortable they are waiting for new stock to arrive to order another pair!
