Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Cycling shorts

Ok odd question: are you supposed to wear underwear under bike shorts? Should i pick up a pair of cycling briefs as well as cycling shorts?
