    Clothing under leathers?

    Just got a 1 piece suit and was wondering what you guys wear under them both on the track and on the road.

    Thanks

    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.

    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.
    In space, no one can smell your fart.

    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
