[RC] Riding Tights Questions - Val NicosonWill be getting myself a pair or two of Nylon/Lycra riding tights. Due to the sensitive, tender skin on the inside of my knees I tend to get sores there. Have tried all kinds of padding when my friend finally allowed me to use her cycling tights with stirrups. It worked! No more sores! Am finding it difficult to find any tights that have stirrups. Is it possible to find these? How about with ankle zippers too rather than only the elastic bands at the bottom? Are there more than one weight of Nylon/Lycra blends? In the fall and spring have worn these under my riding pants which has the knee patches. Not sure how they would work alone without being under something else, especially come the hot and humid summers we have here in the midwest. Would they be too slick riding in a leather saddle and/or with a sheepskin cover? Haven't tried that yet but need to. Would they still provide the same "slickness" against the skin (which is what is preventing my knees from getting friction sores) if I wore them by themselves with a knee and/or seat patch on them? Thanks for the help with the shopping...this list is sure helpful for asking questions :-) Val __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! SiteBuilder - Free web site building tool.
