Yippee indeed - I got my first pair a couple of weeks ago, and it means no more pressure on my belly
- so much more comfortable that now I resent having to wear normal shorts. SteveP

I don't have bibs, but surely the normal solution would work -- just stick it out the bottom of the
legs. Works with my Lusso tights -- though I do have to loosen the ankle zip, of course. Isn't this
what everyone does?

I got a pair of bib shorts about a month ago, and I'm very impressed so far. One question though:
how do you go to the loo while wearing 'em? As far as I can tell, in order to sneak behind a tree
for roadside relief, you'd have to take off your jersey and remove the greater part of the bib
shorts in order to get anywhere... and it must be worse for women. Is there a trick to this that I
don't know about?

I got a pair of bib shorts about a month ago, and I'm very impressed so far. One question though:
how do you go to the loo while wearing 'em? As far as I can tell, in order to sneak behind a tree
for roadside relief, you'd have to take off your jersey and remove the greater part of the bib
shorts in order to get anywhere... and it must be worse for women. Is there a trick to this that I

Out of the collar of your jersey would also work, of course -- but, if you've shaved recently, the
spray could cause razor burn.

The problem is not so much flopping Percy out, as flopping him out in such a way that the entire
length is pointing down. I'm sure you're familiar with what happens when you fail to get your fly
down all the way and end up with JT forming an inverted 'J' as he leaves your trousers - you always
get a little bit left in the urethra that just leaks out as soon as everything is back in place. So
the trick is to avoid that situation.
Lift the bottoms of any upper garments covering the bib (the shirtlifting stage is, unfortunately,
an essential part of the procedure). Reach inside said garments and pull the zip of the bib down as
far as it will go. Now stand in an "I've just got off a horse after a week in the saddle" pose, and
pull the lycra at the bottom of the zip down as far as it will go. Lean forward slightly. You should
now, with practice, be able to answer nature's call without removing any clothes.

I used to do that, at first. If I hadn't figured out a way around it, I would never have bought
another pair of bibs.

Ah. This is where I start to have problems: the bib shorts in question don't have a zip. These
are a pair of Endura thermal bib knickers (http://www.endura.co.uk/Knicks-thermastat.html) which I
bought for winter riding. As I say, the only way that I can see to take them off for a call of
nature involves actually taking the top half off my shoulders - which is quite a pain. Compromise
solution is to wear a wicking base layer on the top half, under the bib section - that way you're
not entirely topless when you have to whip the bib off and roll 'em down. Not the best solution for
icy rides though.

Yup. If I get a pair for summer, I'm now definitely aiming at something with a zip.
