I'm just getting back into cycling after a few years & all I have is a pair of unlined knicks two sizes too small for me (hang the bay window over the top!). I'm on a tight budget & would like to get some cheap cycling clothes. I'm especially curious as to whether cheap synthetic shirts made for other sporting & work applications can perform the same "wicking" function as the fabulously expensive cycling shirts I see at bike shops. By the way, how tight do shirts have to be to effectively "wick"?
I actually live in Daylesford, so Melbourne, Ballarat or Bendigo shops can all be accessed. Any other financially challenged cyclists out there who can share their fashion secrets? Any tips that can save money in the clothing area would be appreciated.
