... OUCH! It hurts to think about that. On an upright bike for long rides, I wore bibs exclusively for many, many years. I thought they stayed in place better...

I agree the zipper is handy, so far I have a zipper only in bib tights. Bibs are warmer in cold weather, but in summer I wear non-bibs sometimes because I have...
It's been my experience that the necessary "movement" will usually take place in some skuzzy men's room where I must find a place to stash all the stuff that...
