I wear underwear and a singlet with either a long or shirt sleeved shirt (depending on how cold it is). If it is cold I also wear a polar fleece.

[zahria]

well, at the very least, I wear socks!!!

[george formby]

Lingerie & make up.....

Should of known id get these responses! :laugh: Just read somewhere skins might be the way to go but going to start with a light thermal.

What do you wear under your trousers when you are walking around? That's what I wear under my leathers. It's not an oversuit, it's the clothes you wear for riding a bike.

[wysper]

in summer under armour brand leggings otherwise boxers. Helps keep you cool believe it or not and makes the leathers much easier to get off at the end of the day. (prepares for possible innuendo on that one!!)

Under the jacket - shirt in summer.
merino thermals and shirt in winter. And if it is really cold some oxford chill out gear. Good stuff that.

Ice Breaker tee and long johns, even on a summer day.
Stops the sticky feeling, and the natural fibre is much easier on the skin if you take a fall. I know.

Don't get Skins get Underarmour if you can it's cheaper and better quality, Skins is big in Australasia but the rest of the world classes Underarmour as a better product and the shirts are around $95 instead of $150. I use them for running and they are awesome.

I always use where a shirt/jumper , and a pair of knee length shorts.

Few months i ago i brought a pair of shorts things like the skins (puma brand ones tho, alot cheaper than the over priced skins, i got them from rebal sport, when having 50%, so only cost me $35ish for a pair of shorts)

And they are really good, i have used them at the track, and also on a 900km weekend tour, and they are really good, i often get sore legs espially at the track, and i did not have any of that last time i went.

i am going to buy a shirt to match at some stage.

I would recommend using them under your gear

If you can fit clothes under your leather, then you got the wrong size.

A thin T-shirt or thermals is about it for me.

[steve_t]

Back protector?

Skin tight so dont worry :msn-wink:. Just read stuff regarding skins etc and they are meant to be really good with blood circulation and helping avoid soreness and numbing.

Yep, I don't know how the hell people fit jerseys and multiple layers under leathers. Mine are so goddamn tight all I can fit between them and my skin is a layer of polyprop or merino. My first leather jacket was so loose I could move the armour 90 degrees either side of my elbows :laugh:

Keen to try some underarmour, but I have two sets of thermals (top and bottom) that I wear all year round. Certainly makes getting leathers off a lot easier.

I wear skins on a hot day - because they actually help cool yu down.

When I tour and the weather is changeable I wear pure marino wool - cos it's warm and it doesn't smell after the end of a days riding.

[gatch]

Shorts, socks, a t-shirt, woolly singlet thing if its cold.

If its a special occasion I'll where my batman gear..

Give me back my rubber undies you , I wondered where they had gone :doh:

I ( sometimes ), wear cycling shorts under my riding gears, No heavy pocket seams to cut in while on a long ride. A pair of soft fabric trackpants are good.

[slofox]

Merino thermals - summer and winter. Single layer summer, double layer winter. Cool in summer, warm in winter.
I use two different weights. Icebreaker in the heaviest I can get (260?) and Finespun (from Farmers) is the lighter one. Finespun shrinks so go generous on the sizing when buying. Icebreaker has not shrunk - yet anyway...

[Ratti]

go for a close fitting knitted natural fibre. Wool, silk or cotton are good. two layers when its cold. artificial fibres melt when heated through abrasion. ie, some dumbarse bowls you, you skid, undies melt...ewww

I squeeze a wind proof vest ( Kathmandu has a good one, look for them in 2nd hand stores) and a tight polar fleece under my jacket for winter rides.

two layers of thermal socks with boots are handy for winter too.

in summer its mostly bra, knickers, cotton liners and my tatts! If we ever have summer again that is...

[Scotty595]

I'd be lucky to fit a piece of string between my pants/legs. My jacket I could probably get something in (have fit my back protector in but thats preety much it.

[Subike]

clean undies

I have no problem fitting clothing under my jacket, but damn, my pants are just too tight to wear anything under them. I can just squeeze my very fetching black thermals between my skin and leather in the winter - as I can't afford to have more layers of fat under them! :eek: lol

[Ratti]

nice to know you listened to your mother Subike...clean undies and a clean hankie eh?

May I make an observation here dudes????
vanity is fine and there is nothing like a tight pair of leathers to show off a nice bum... buuuut, isnt it nice to be warm on a long ride? Might be showing my age here, but I'd prefer to be warm and dry when I ride. lol. and they say women are vain????

[koba]

Socks, Shirt, jeans or work pants, jearsy, 6 pack of piss or whatever I'm getting from the shop.

Supertight leathers are a wee bit homo for my taste.

[Kiwi Graham]

I gunna stop hanging my leathers in the garage, they keep fukin shrinking!!!!
I wear a long sleeved Tshirt (my arms sweat!?) cycle shorts and long socks...........oh and a smile :cool:

[sAsLEX]

undies melt...ewww



Most in the Falklands went commando but a lot of the sailors had a long recovery from their new nylon socks melting to their feet in the flash from explosions.


I like my wool socks!

[James Deuce]

My usual under-the-leathers getup, especially on a hot Summer's day.

The "Where Curves are Encouraged" tagline is what drew me to that particular Google search result, but now I can't go back to a simple cotton tee.

[ManDownUnder]

A sports bra, rubber undies and a Richard Nixon mask.

You too??? very cool!

[gunrunner]

Yes baby nice and tight leathers ... :banana:

[TOTO]

So are you saying that you keep a fat chick in your leathers? I'm impressed.

[James Deuce]

I've lost a bit of weight.

[Toureg]

Cant beat Merino icebreaker long johns and tee, even when its hot.

[goldgal]

Is there socks out there in the heat of the summer that dont make ya feet hot in the boots?:(

Ones with holes in them? :lol:

[pritch]

For those with perforated leathers the EDZ line may be of interest. I have a windproof shell jacket but there are also leggings available. They aren't cheap and they don't insulate but they do work as advertised. Sorry, but I doubt you'll find them locally.

This stuff will definitely extend the season during which you can use your perforated gear in comfort and there is the bonus that the leather slips on and off easily over the fine weave.

Try a bikini....then if you need to go swimming 'cause you're hot and sweaty...you're set to go!

How do you prepare for inuendo?
By bending over! Boom tish:buggerd: :killingme

[Okey Dokey]

Like many others have said, merino in one or two layers- to suit the weather conditions- are very good under leathers. Comfortable, and as a road rider, they are tidy and presentable when you stop for a coffee.

I had never thought about the melting qualities of artificial fibres, but that is a good point, too.
