Re: What underware should I buy?

I bought some from Aldi when they had the biking stuff in last time, and they seem to do the job admirably without costing a fortune.

Really?? I dont think I lose any length in my pants when I sit down. 'Course, it all depends who's sat on me lap at the time............

Re: What underware should I buy?

loose length? is there some kind of code in here that i dont know yet? otherwise i got da loose but no comment on da length!

i kept my green thermals from the raf when i left lol great for fishing and as it turns out pretty good for biking too as long as you dont mind looking like kermit the frog in front of the other half getting ready or once ur home! you can grab em real cheap on ebay too id imagine!

Re: What underware should I buy?

Grotbag, I wear 50 denier tights and over the knee woolly socks under my gear (I'm a dead classy bird, me!) In the really cold weather, I wear my thermals OVER my tights and the socks over the thermals....

I've also found the warmest type of jumper are fleece ones.
