Re: [RC] Tights Required - Nancy Sturm

Oh those tights - but:  if I have to, you have to.  There's nothing
charming about the back view of a 62 year old woman in riding tights,but I
bought some really long tee shirts from Lands End to screen the view. 
They're sure more comfortable than jeans.

I'm much more concerned about my comfort than what I look like.  When
riding endurance, comfort for me, and for the horse, are foremost.  If
someone doesn't like the way I look in tights.......tough!


Being another one who doesn't look very appealing in tights, I have to
agree wholeheartedly with Barbara here--it's all about comfort, and if
anybody else doesn't like it, they can look the other way... <g>  My
figure in tights reminds me of one of my favorite old lymericks:

"I know how ugly I are;
I know my face ain't no star.
     But I don't mind it
     'Cuz I'm behind it!
The fellow in front gets the jar!"

To the original poster--you'll find you have lots of company on the trail
with "thunder thighs" and "jelly bellies" so don't be shy--wear whatever
works for you, and don't worry about how it looks, because the rest of us
are too busy riding to worry about it either.  :-)
