[RC] [RC] need suggestion for riding tights - Sherman
Just to clear things
up here, it's not the tights that rubbed my knees, it's my denim leggings. I had
such a hard time giving them up as I used to be a regular jeans wearing cowgirl.
I just thought it was so strange that I could condition in these leggings, but
not wear them on rides. I loved my leggings (past tense), and now I love my
tights!

I'm starting my third season of
use with my tights from Evelyn's Tights @ www.justforhorsin-round.com. The
only tear in them is on the lower leg where a branch snagged them as I was
stumbling around. I live in the winter fleece tights all winter, use
them for my walking/jogging on freezing cold mornings and I'm always comfortably
cozy on cold day rides. They're warm to wear even if they're a little wet. I do
still condition in my stretch denim leggings, but even though I do 25-30 mile
training rides without a problem in the leggings, within the first 5 miles of an
AERC ride the insides of my knees become extremely raw from the
seam.
