Because you haven't learned to go before you put them on.

Exactly why I will not wear bibs. Access is everything.

Nashbar has a pair of bibs with a 2 button flap in back. Would go well with our new jersey.

The bubbling sound that PowerAde makes when you pour them into the waterbottles?

Depends make great seat pads, you don't have to by the gell filled shorts and you can get that warm feeling on a cold morning.

There are younger guys in my riding group who find that really amusing. If I last long enough for them to age, I 'll laugh last.

Mayhaps you need to adjust when you are taking your pills in relation to when you are bibbing up?

Nice Pic of Mr. Gee there Tom.

No problem, just whip off the jersey and drop the bibs.

That could be dangerous when DG goes out for a ride along the San Diego beaches.

I man had been meant to wear bibs, we'd have been born with, um, a different, um, ah, configuration...

Universal bicycle laws!

You will always have to go after the bibs are on.
The foot still clipped in will be on the side your falling toward.
The next downhill will not take anywhere as long as the next uphill.
Tires know when you forgot your pump.
Traffic coming from behind, traffic coming from in front and you will always meet at the same spot...............and the road will be narrow there.

velcro or what. Hope it is a high top style short in case the straps get snagged on something.

I hate those cold breezes tho wizzing about my hind quarters. Reason to wear drawers, in spite of the underwear nazi.

Old Codger Bladder. That's OCB for you acronym freaks. I guess we could call it Old Codger Pee or OCP on the 50+ forum. But I also find that the desire to pee also happens as soon as I start to do something that I'd like to finish non-stop, like getting into the greasy part of cleaning my chain.
