Best underwear for riding in (men)!

anniedoherty · 24 November 2006

Does anyone know what is the best type of undewear for men to ride in? I have a friend who is erm, well proportioned in the manly bits department and he is just learning to ride but is finding it a bit uncomfortable. I said I'd try to find out what he should wear to make things a bit less painful! Hope someone can help

You never know when you might end up in A&E

Seriously though....I find wrapping it around my waist a couple of times does the trick.....i'm not actually overweight....it just looks like it

Boxers are a definite NoNo.
Underwear has to be tight and have a wide support area with no escape hatches.
Normal mens briefs (not Y fronts) work well.

LOL ....PMSL

Thank you they are the ones that I've been looking at. It's quite fun searching actually! I just wondered if anyone had any personal recommendations from husbands/boyfriends (or themselves of course if they have all the right bits)!!

Rambo- Only a couple of times? and there I was thinking you were a real man.

Oooh Rambo. Not sure I should tell him that!!!!!

No "escape hatches" eh? That sounds sensible.

I am soooo glad I'm a woman sometimes............

Obv you can get them with varying amounts of padding!!!

Is this just a thinly veiled excuse to look at men in their pants?

No look here young lady. I was trying to offer serious advice based on 42 years of experience.
To appreciate the severity of this problem I suggest you obtain a pair of Y fronts (preferably clean ones). Cut your finger in several places to increase sensitivity. Place said finger (or your whole arm in Rambo's case) through said escape hatch. Now trap tightly against another peice of material to simulate jods. Bounce around at 120bpm for 5 mintes to experience how serious the problem is on an XC course. It will seriously ruin your day.
You think you women have problems Hah!

Have to concur on the 'no escape hatches' front

Keep it all well and truly in check

anniedoherty · 24 November 2006

I am glad that I asked 'cos it's cheering me up reading all the daft comments on such a rainy, dull Friday and there are the obvious benefits of seeing men in their pants purely for "research purposes" you understand!!!

Cant you tape it down or something

anniedoherty · 24 November 2006

I thought maybe everything should be placed in the "up" rather than "down" position? Maybe some kind person can enlighten me!

I refer you to the issues you lot moan about with waxing and we would have to use duck tape.

BBs · 24 November 2006

Not sure even duck tape is strong enough for rambo by the sounds of it lol

Waxing.....piece fo cake

Sooty · 24 November 2006

Or have done to it...

PaddyMonty · 24 November 2006

Definitely down and to one side. Centre seams can chaf terribly. That said i have not experienced any problems since getting my WOW saddle which does not have those awkward bulges each side.

Light bulb moment......thats why it is so comnfortable.

Yet again we have proved we can turn the most innocent of questions into an innuendo riddled thread.
