Recently retook up bicycling to lose some weight.
I've been riding in regular shorts, my 1.5 inch belt and a side-arm, covered-up by a vest. (I almost always wear the vest when not at work, so no big deal...).
Unfortunately, chafing is starting after 40+ minutes. Reaffirms why people wear bicycle shorts (its not for the looks!).
Question:
Is anyone aware of mountain bike shorts (with lining) that can accept a 1.5 inch belt. I have no desire to ride unarmed... (I don't do fanny packs). VA does allow open carry, but some of the fairfax citizens would likely be alarmed. Additionally, open carry doesn't solve chafing... Need new shorts!
