harden myself and i dont have any injuries, my seats out of my legs and
sight of my balls.--

Get a pair of bike shorts and wear them underneath your regular
clothes.that way you wont get chaffed,and it pulls your stuff up and keeps it
together.--

For long rides, I suggest bike shorts, or at least spandex. But when
you're just doing either freestyle, or trials, or something, then I bet
most anything will work.--

I knew this thread would appear someday:
I personally prefer bikeing shorts on longer rides, they prevent caffing
and lessen the chance of a nutbuster on a UPD. On shorter rides, I would
reccomend you whear something that doesn't buch up, and is still
comfortable... longer boxers are a no-no in my opinion...--

Padded bike shorts are the way to go. While we're on the topic of
covering your bottom half, does anyone have any favorite pants that can
handle the rubbing? I'm finding that all my pants are getting worn down
on the inner thighs. I'm thinking I'll start wearing an old pair of
baggy "cycling shorts" over my pants to avoid buying new pants every
month.--

material. The are flexible, soft, not too hot ever, and not too cold
ever, and they are relativeley cheap and durable.You might want to check some out.

Padded bike shorts are best. They hold everything in place so that all
the sudden movements don't whiplash all your goods around. I usually
just wear the padded bike shorts with typical gym shorts over that. You
do not want to have any underwear under your bike shorts, unless you
really like the wedgies.--

I wear crash pads for downhill muni stuff. They're similar to the 661
bomber shorts (the newer ones are a black stretch material; somewhat
like under armor shirts):http://www.mountainboardshop.com/craspadpadsh.html
Another similar model:
I would highly recommend something like this if there's any chance of a
tailbone hit. Offroad in Arizona can be very gravely downhill--I've
slipped and smashed my ass more than a few times without any effect.I wear Under Armour boxer briefs beneath the crash pads, for sweat
wicking and comfort. These should be at your sporting goods store.

nylon pants or shorts with very tight/small/smooth stitching last the
longest. I avoid cotton.I think the other thing to think about is how smooth your seat is. I had
a nylon roach seat cover that was pretty rough and seemed to eat my
shorts. Also a crappy KH where the cover was ripping right where it
touches my thighs....you know how it happens.--
