Hi, newbie here and eagerly awaiting my new bike (my first bike in 15 years). More than a little concerned by the prospect of a sore arse killing my motivation from the off, so I'd like to preempt this by getting some decent padded shorts.
However, to say I'm on the large side is an understatement. I'm a relaxed fit 42" jeans kind of guy.
I've had a look and I'm finding sizes to be inexplicable and I'd rather order online than suffer the indignity of being laughed out of a cycling shop !
I'd probably be looking at something to wear beneath another pair of shorts/trackies, at least to start off with until I sort myself out.
Wasn't sure whether to ask this in this forum or the beginners forum, so apologies if I made the wrong choice.
Thanks
