Bikes: something fixed, something broken

Except last weekend after wearing them under my shorts from 2 pm-10pm it was so hot i made up a song called "Las Vegas in my crotch" it sounds like Peaches. I need to find some of those underwear shorts.

Lycra works. if you think it's only for "roadie elitists" or whatever un-PC word you want to call it then you are wrong. The hipster kit of tight jeans or the skater look of loose cargos (which is me BTW) works if you are goofing around or riding short rides around 10-15miles...but nothing longer.
For working messengers the baggy look with lots of pockets with padded shorts under works well...but honestly, how many of you are working day to day messengers in here.
So, bike shorts are your friend.

lycra is no biggie. i do metric centuries all the time, fixed, with just wearing kakhi shorts and boxers. i've never had any discomfort.
if you get a comfortable, well fitting, and well adjusted saddle, lycra is just gravy on top.
