Padded cycling tights
Is it weird to wear these during the summer? The Lambda ones I got off Amazon are pretty thin and seem pretty comfortable. Would roadies look at me weird? lol. I'm also new to wearing tights and compression shorts out on the road. I usually put on some running shorts on top. Do you guys just go with it?

WTF do you mean by padded cycling tights?
Are you talking about regular ol' bike shorts / bibs? If so, why would people look at you weird? Are your tights different from your compression shorts? Why would you wear running shorts to go for a bike ride?
Do tell.

Most roadies give me funny looks (usually a scowl). All my kit is super-hero themed.
Other bikers smile.

If they can't get over the way you look: that's their problem not yours.

RBF...roadie bicycle face.
Wear the tights. If they prove to be too warm, don't wear them.
Ditch the running shorts.

Real men wear tights. In fact, I've grown so confident with my bicycle tights that I think I might start walking around public with Yoga Pants like the ladies do. I have a pretty cute butt after all.
