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 tights with long inseam

I've got a 36 inch inseam and in the market for cycling tights. Before I start trying on lots of stuff, anyone with longer legs have something they are happy with?

I got some polypro tights from Nashbar and they've worked well. Surprisingly warm and they come in tall sizes. It looks like they're out of the Large size right now.

I think there's a 10%-off coupon available--see the Coupon Forum, and click through the link there so that BF gets a cut, if you decide on these.

Cheers.

You might contact Boure' https://www.boure.com/tightsmen.html - they make their stuff right there in Durango - maybe they could make a pair for you?

Cheap-arsed Sugoi tights in XL. I've got a 34" inseam. The waist is a little loose, but if I were a couple inches taller the tights would work fine.
