I'm going to try some of my colourful leggings over padded shorts for cycling in the hope of avoiding the need to buy new cycling tights. Since eL Bee! and I try to match our kit when on the tandem, this could have interesting consequences

Velociraptor Mar 2021 10:01am, 30 Mar 2021 52,062 posts	0 Velociraptor Cycling skorts with padded shorts do exist in the sense that one or two manufacturers have a product of that sort on the fringes of their range, but I suspect it won't become A Thing unless a company like Cycology or FLATB bring out a product and have a huge marketing push like Flanci have done with running skorts.
Velociraptor Mar 2021 10:05am, 30 Mar 2021 52,063 posts	0 Velociraptor Back in the olden days I did loads of cycling in a skirt (all my calf-length skirts had chain marks and ingrained mud round the edges) and normal knickers and any old saddle set up any old way. I only remember getting a sore bum on one occasion.
Rosehip Mar 2021 10:09am, 30 Mar 2021 20,460 posts	0 Rosehip I used to cycle to and from school and into Wimbledon or Streatham in school uniform and don't ever remember getting a sore bum. Did the London to Brighton one year, most likely in jeans. Five minutes on Eldest's knackered old bike to see how much work it needed and I was John Wayne.
