You don't know what misery is until you discover you've worn out the seat of a pair of wool dress slacks riding your bicycle to work. Back 30 years ago they were over a hundred bucks a pair. I can only imagine what they cost today. If you ride a lot on weekends, you have shorts and jerseys that are pretty worn, perhaps a bit too shabby for you to want to wear on a "good" ride -- or maybe they're starting to get a little Lycra Leprosy in "non-sensitive" areas, but with plenty of wear left in the seat. So instead of throwing them out, use them on your commute. There are thousands of perfectly good miles left in those old cycling clothes! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
