Re: [RC] OMG - Zephyr Arabians----------------------------------------------------------- From: Chris Paus <paus@xxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [RC] OMG This is just wrong! I was surfing the Dover catalog online, the bargain section of course... they have THONG riding underwear on sale. OMG, I don't even want to think about 25 or 50 miles in a thong.... egad... clearly not for endurance riders.... Hate to break this to you, Chris, but some people prefer thongs. :) To some people they are vastly more comfortable than "standard" women's underwear. In fact, I haven't worn "standard" (be they bikini or granny panties or anything inbetween) underwear in probably 18 years or more. I find them horribly uncomfortable. Oh, wait... I did buy some padded granny-type underwear that were supposedly made for riding, but then I just felt like I was wearing a diaper -- plus all the other features I don't like about regular underwear. So, to those who care: yes, I've ridden 50 miles in a thong. Although, to be honest, my prefered choice for that distance is more like men's boxer breifs or bike shorts. But, it's tough to find bike shorts without seams in the wrong places & men's boxer breifs have extra fabric in places we women don't need it. I've got some very expensive women's boxer breifs (I think I found them on eBay of all places), and they've been the best choice for me for 50 miles. Less than 50 miles I'm still in a thong. :) ~Nicole (should I have posted this one anon?)
