Reaney in NH Posted May 20, 2009 Author Share #52 Posted May 20, 2009 Who'd a thought such a simple question would create a 4 page thread. It just proves that you people can create something out of almost nothing. Now I need to go spend some money and try these things out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mini-muffin Posted May 20, 2009 Share #53 Posted May 20, 2009 Heck we've been known to make longer threads on absolutely nothing. Some threads on nothing produce their own threads on even more nothing. We're a fun bunch I'm sure you can tell. :rotf::rotf: Margaret Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1sttenor Posted May 20, 2009 Share #54 Posted May 20, 2009 Under Armour HeatGear in the summer (I prefer the ones with a longer leg, reduces chafing). Under Armour ColdGear in the spring and fall. Cheers, That's what I do as well. A bit more expensive, but way worth it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juggler Posted May 20, 2009 Share #55 Posted May 20, 2009 All I can say is I've tried other types beside briefs and if they don't provide any support I'm sitting on things that are meant to be sat upon. Boxers, boxer briefs and such just don't work for me. Instead I switched from straight legged jeans to these cargo or carpenter type jeans that are looser fitting. When I put my feet up on the highway pegs I get a nice air flow in to cool everything down. Ya just gotta watch out for bees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silent67 Posted May 20, 2009 Share #56 Posted May 20, 2009 I know it may be a odd subject... But I need to know. What do you guys wear for underwear on a long road trip? We are planning a 4000 mile ride this summer in early August thru the midwest. Its going to be HOT and sweat will be a problem. Cotton underwear just doesn't cut it. What do you recommended and why? Thank you Go buck nekked under your pants or get some Anti-Monkey Butt Powder. :banana: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spankym Posted May 21, 2009 Share #57 Posted May 21, 2009 try underarmour or nike or reebok...can find at dicks sporting goods (just bought two more pair) or any store like them...like the longer 9" inseem boxers....usually polyester and spandex or lycra...they are like the swim suits and give support but wick the moisture away.....can also sprinkle in some powder... i use them for riding and working out at the gym.

Gray Ghost Posted May 21, 2009 Share #59 Posted May 21, 2009 I took Under Armour and a brand called merino (I think) that I bought in Target over to the sandbox. Both worked fairly well, but I think the Under Armour work better on a long ride. Any wicking material should do well as long as any seams are not on a pressure point.

saddlebum Posted May 21, 2009 Share #60 Posted May 21, 2009 Hey Mini, I have been reading this thread too. I had no idea men's underwear was so interesting. Now when I look at all of their butts, I will sure be wondering; boxers or briefs? Oh heck, I did that anyhow.And I know that you have a collection of butt photos. Maybe we should have a group photo at MD of everyone's butts.

Snarley Bill Posted May 21, 2009 Share #61 Posted May 21, 2009 was trying to stay on the side lines on this one , but since i have the answer to the ultimate in long distance comfort i just got to let it out. i have tried everything. here's what works best. get a loose fitting pair of jeans, some cheap walmart talcum powder, and don't wear that crappy restrictive underwear at all. i got the idea from kramer on seinfeld. it works great. then for the ultimate,ad an alaskan sheepskin. i rode a 625 mile 97 degree day in complete comfort. bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussie Annie Posted May 21, 2009 Share #62 Posted May 21, 2009 Been there done that, never want to do it again. Although it was kinda interesting once when I, oh lets say --- passed gas while riding and it filtered up past the boys instead of out the backside. Kinda left with a flurry! THE MIND BOGGLES!!!!!!!!:think: I GUESS IT KEPT THEM WARM FOR AWHILE?:crackup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussie Annie Posted May 21, 2009 Share #63 Posted May 21, 2009 Off site for a couple of days due to 'puter trouble, and this thread has gone beserk!! Never knew there could be so much discussion on whether to wrap or unwrap your bits for a long ride :think: And Snarly Bill, didn't Kramer like a "house" for his "boys" ?? Okay, a mind boggler for you all---------- I'm built for comfort not for speed (lots of me to hug) and on long trips I wear WAIT FOR IT..........................a G-string and bike shorts :shock3: Ain't a perdy site either LOL but beats standing up on the pegs for miles:rotf::rotf::rotf: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brscooter Posted May 22, 2009 Share #64 Posted May 22, 2009 Best thing for chafing is Boudreaux's Butt Paste. Invented in Covington, LA, not too far from where KBRAN lives. Best thing in the world for diaper rash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

COMMANDOO is the O-N-L-Y way to GOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :banana::banana::banana::banana::banana::banana::banana::banana::banana: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davecb Posted May 22, 2009 Share #66 Posted May 22, 2009 I have to agree with Juggler...with boxers, no telling when you will sit on something not made to sit on...Especially if you move around the seat quite a bit.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKRefugee Posted May 22, 2009 Share #67 Posted May 22, 2009 Fishnet type underwear and chaps, no jeans. Nice airflow where you want it all the time. But word of caution here, don't speed because the officer might not ummm appreciate you fashion selection . . . or so I've heard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
