    They're more comfortable when you cycle.

    They are an assault on the eyes and they look ridiculous.

    Though, I can only commend the lack of fcuks given by lyrcra-wearers as to what everyone else thinks. Clearly they give absolutely none.

    Head out for a 200km spin on a bike over the Wicklow hills in a pair of jeans and a sensible jumper and report back

    The worst offenders are the MAMIL's though.

    The Middle Aged Men In Lycra that is.

    I mean we understand that you're having a mid life crisis, but can we not go back to days where the solution was just to buy a porsche and grow out whatever hair you have left into a ponytail?

    What's worse is when overweight guys spend thousands to get the lightest bike possible.

    They have respect..they only wear it when they're on the pull.

    Ever cycled over 10km? As I said try it inappropriate clothes and report back. Cotton is like a sponge when damp from perspiration and has zero wicking properties. Extremely uncomfortable and will sap heat over a long ride. Normal shorts have no padding - you'll realise the folly after about an hour into an eight hour ride. Horses for courses I guess.

    Where are the women?? Just look at women out walking (or just strolling gossiping with their friend) and feel the need to wear lycra...... Thankfully

    I see what you're doing different there. The "why??" is also strong within me.

    Unfortunately there is nothing as efficient.
    If it rains lycra does not hold the moisture - likewise it does not hold sweat. It doesn't flap around or get caught in the bike or anything near the bike. Not sure what the perverse bit is - a thick pad covers the private parts in real shorts. Plus you don't have to suffer builders arse crack if you drive up behind....

    I tape a sponge to my sac and cycle in the nip. Cuts down on wind resistance.
