Women-- have you got favorite pants that you can ride in, but that look good off the bike? I take the MUSA pants along on loaded tours, but they are not exactly stylish and well fitted. I'm fond of Ibex's Loose Tights for everyday wear in winter: they're comfortable on the bike as long as I cinch in the legs with legbands, and off the bike, they look like normal everyday pants. -- -- Anne Paulson My hovercraft is full of eels -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
