I guess I don't care how dorky I look and apparently it shows.

However, there are some style considerations:
- I dress for visibility on the bike, so I have a number of screaming yellow shirts that I *always* wear. I consider it as good as running lights in the day. I bought a bunch of screaming yellow tee shirts from alertshirt.com a number of years ago. They don't wear out very fast.

- I do like to wear biking shorts on longer rides. However, I normally don't go into Walmart with just biking shorts. I have several pairs of swimming trunks with the inner mesh removed. These I wear over biking shorts. I do have a great pair of mountain shorts, but they are too warm for hot days.

- Shoes? I wear hiking shoes or snow sneakers in winter.

So I guess I always wear biking-specific clothing of one sort or another. Mainly for comfort.
