yoyo said:As a woman of poor figure I thoroughly recommend skorts having used them on my tour of the DAnube last year. Pearl Izuma do them: they are a ladies padded shorts with a cross over 'skirt' incorporated into the waistband. The fabric of the 'skirt' is such that it is not blown by the wind and sits flat. When one dismounts one is not wishing for a long t-shirt!! I thoroughly recommend them.
For my everyday cycling I can wear a skirt as I have a Dutch bike with chain and skirt guard - I even tested it before purchase wearing a wide knee-length skirt.
I'm going to try and get one. I like the idea. I always feel very unglam on tour, which is unpleasant in countries like France..I'm going to try the skort approach. Off to search for one now.
