Nice drawers, Mrs M
You don't have enough, get the visa out as wiggle got a sale on..This was my mantra when I started back in to biking about 18 months ago. I really meant it too, I just didn't see the point.
Anyway, skip forwards to today and I have an entire wardrobe dedicated to the stuff with more on the way - I've just ordered some Bianchi owners club bib shorts and jersey

Is this the norm? What does your cycling wardrobe look like?
Your cycle clothing drawer is sooo tidy Mrs M! I just chuck my jerseys in the top of my wardrobe and search them out by colour recognition when i want them. Sometimes i have to pull the whole pile out to find the one i'm after.View attachment 424112 This is part of my wee stash of cycling clothes
My main issue with the ol' lycra is that cycling is a leisure activity for me and one of my other favourite leisure activities is stopping at the pub. I usually combine the two and no one who's had a drink or three wants to see me in skin tight pants. It's also the reason I have a bit of a gut.
Secondary reason is that after a few years out of the saddle me quads have shrunk to puny proportions and baggier shorts hide my shame!
Oh my!if anyone else doesn't like it they can kiss my hairy (and lycra clad) arse.
Just stuff a pair of socks down there or maybe even a coke bottle. Just be careful you don't slip onto the top tube if you go for the coke bottle option!Secondary reason is that after a few years out of the saddle me quads have shrunk to puny proportions and baggier shorts hide my shame!
Naturally my black leggings are lycra. (Special lycra that makes them a bit wrinkly)
But the beige baggy shorts I wear over my black leggings are not.
This combination makes me a style god.
Another issue with bib shorts and pubs is if you need a wee wee. My baggies have a zip fly which is much easier!

Never found it a problem. Lycra is very stretchy.
