I never would have thought I'd be the guy who wore bib shorts. I thought they were always a little weird but too many salespeople in too many local bike shops told me all they wear are bib shorts. Yup, they were right. I can't say that the first time I put them on was an epiphany and I can't say that wearing wearing shorts is now awful. However, I can say that I doubt I will ever buy a pair of "standard" bike shorts again. I already look goofy in bike shorts (who doesn't?) so I figure I might as well embrace the marginal comfort benefit.
For the record, they're Pearl Izumi Elite bibs and they're not cheap but I won't be going back to the Pearl Izumi Attack shorts or bib. Maybe I'll try to the P.R.O....
