    For virtually all my riding I wear lycra padded shorts underneath some form of over short - ranging from MTB shorts to plan old shorts from Gap. I need the lycra short for the comfort / sweat wicking abilities. As stated by a previous poster I binned the liners that came with the MTB shorts in place of decent lycra shorts.

    I cover up partly from modesty and partly from wanting to appear casual and not too serious... ..silly really.

    On top I will generally alawys wear a plain ish road cycling specific top - that has pouches on the back and is cut to suit a road position. (for my sins I like the plain rapha gear)

    I have just started commuting/road cycling all i`m wearing is cycling top with 3/4 trousers and padded undershorts.

    I dont think i will ever wear lycra shorts.... Mr.Motivator has scarred me for life with his spandex :lol:
