Re: [RC] Undies Question...... (what kinds best to ride in) - Magnumsmom

Sport-type undies that have some sort of moisture-management
high tech micro fiber.  You can find these at REI (www.rei.com) in
many different styles.  You definately want things to stay dry in
that area to avoid chaffeing.

If you are willing to spend the money, find a pair of tights or
breeches in a fiber that feels right to you.  For instance, I prefer
Devon-Aire's Cool Cotton breech... I like the feel and protection of 
the heavier material but a lot of people prefer the "not there"
feel of the cool-max Carousel breeches.  In the winter here in the
SW or back in the West or if it might rain you can't beat PolarTek 
fleece breeches.  Fleece might be miserable at any time of year
in Florida though.  So where you are in the country the weather
predictions will have a lot to do with recommendations you'll get.

Have a great time on your first ride!  If all else fails, whatever you've
been training in will probably work... and if it doesn't (ie, falls appart
for instance) there's always vet wrap.  :)
