Cycling Shorts?

I'm getting to the age where incompetence is followed by incontinence.

I turned 70 on 10/3, so incontinence is most likely on the horizon!

I’m 75. Incontinence was a concern a few years ago when my prostate suggested rolling into a ball and limping. Treatment worked. Now my saddle helps hold it in.

The most important thing is to follow Larry David’s rule: “Go before you leave”.

Well I am definitely old enough where trusting a fart is always a gamble. So maybe my biking shorts should be a very dark color.

How many hear actually wear cycling shorts?

Do you wear them every time that you ride?

What are the positives?

I tried wearing shorts one time, but my legs are so unattractive that a petition was gotten up asking me not to do that.

the older you get the less that bothers you.

In-Continents from Australia to Europe and Asia, ridders find these padded shorts to be plush, with the added benefit of not needing to stop as often.

Not stopping is not a benefit. One beer out, relax, and another beer in. Repeat often as needed.

That ‘DEPENDS’ on your perspective!

No, the only advantage I've gained from old age is not having to zip my fly if I don't feel like it, or don't remember to.

and another beer in

It is not just about the beers.

Good quality shorts and jerseys last a long time, (I wear bids instead of shorts). My favorite jersey is nearly 20 years old. Hand wash and air dry.

I also prefer to have a variety of bibs so that I avoid hot spots.

I find that my ‘Depends’ give me all the support and comfort I need!

Plus on the longer rides there’s no need for a bathroom break!

These ones are good it comes with skin tight padded liner that you can wear without the shorts. It's strech fabric fashionable enough i wear on the golf course not just for ebiking.
