Hello:
I've been riding for a while now and prefer bib shorts. The thing is, when
it's hot out here (along with the humidity) I usually do not wear a jersey.
Just the bibs. Other cyclists apparently do not like it. Is it not right
to wear bibs w/o a jersey? I know I shouldnt really care but when I ride
with bike clubs where I am the new guy it just seems inappropriate or they
make it seem that way.
?
thanks

I'd guess some members of your club
have been put into difficulty by your
somewhat unorthodox choice of clothing.
Do what you think is right. -

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
If this belongs in the "Most Disgusting..." thread, then you should rethink.
Otherwise, I see no reason for Zoot's "Plonk."How do they make it seem inappropriate? Are you just being self conscious,
and reading your own thoughts into their behavior? Do you get more smiles
and friendlier behavior when you are wearing a jersey? -
What you are doing seems tame by comparison. Check out

You MUST wear a jersey with bibs. They are not appropriate for wear w/o
a jersey. -

nonsense, just carry a supply of panty liners with the adhesive for
instant protection. 🙂 -
Yeah, but what about us fat guys? Is it OK for us to ride without a
shirt? -

thanksIt sounds like a very unattractive look but at least it's better than a
jersey w/o shorts or bibs. A bit more comfortable too I'd imagine.Regards,
