    lycra on the commute and weekends. Happily wear it to the school to pick up my daughter and into work as well, I don't really care what they think, as most aren't exactly model material either. Only good quality stylish lycra though !

    I was taken aside and politely asked to wear baggies. Seemed my parading through the office in Lycra wasn't universally adored.

    Bad luck, Old Bean. I get a standing ovation and roses thrown in my path.

    Lycra under 3/4 baggies (>5 miles) or jeans (<5 miles), merino baselayer and depending on weather, Torm jersey. Too hot for a jersey today.

    Too hot for a jersey? What do you wear in lieu?

    I get wolf whistles from the accounts and ops ladies. They are all on report for sexist behaviour...

    Easy tiger. Mis-read.

    I've always found a base-layer under a jersey seems to keep me cooler...

    Ah well the ladies loved it, but the men were jealous... also productivity decreased.

    Yup, just a baselayer. Essentially a SS tee that magically takes care of the sweat.

    Tight with baggy tops for the commute - tight all the way at weekends.

    Personally, I prefer tight, but people who see me in it don't :lol:

    Seriously, tight clothing doesn't cause you drag in the wind, baggy stuff does...
