I just decided at one point to not care. I don't want saddle sores or whatever chafing could happen.
I don't look any less dumb than a 140 pound guy in lycra. Especially on days like today when it is chilly and I have arm and leg warmers on. There was less spandex in a Van Halen concert in the early 80s.
Compression clothing's other benefits on long rides are just more valuable than someone else's opinions on my appearance.
