Like a great many people, my plans for a short tour (my first) in France and Belgium were thwarted by Covid 19. While disappointing personally, I'm acutely aware that this was a trivial outcome in the grand scheme of things.
Anyway, I've started thinking about doing a slightly longer tour next year, focussing on Belgium. This will be done at a sedate pace with plenty of sightseeing and food stops. When cycling near home I tend to wear the standard mamil gear - I'm mainly on the bike so don't really care how awful it looks to passers-by.
However, for sightseeing I'd rather wear something less offensive on the eye; probably baggy shorts. I'm looking for advice on what to wear under these. Regular bike shorts would be too heavy in the summer, so padded liners are the obvious solution. I only have one pair (endura) and the pad is really poor - I'd hate to wear these for 40 or 50 miles in a day.
Any advice on liner shorts with decent pads?
