I bought a pair of “riding pants” last year in expectation of a long damp fall season, then it went from dust to snow in about three weeks. While some nights the idea of the warmth provided seemed like a good idea while leaving the house, in practice I find long pant as too warm for anything above 10c.
while I am glad mountain bike fashion has moved beyond loud jerseys and spandex, or loud jerseys and super baggy shorts, I kind of gravitate towards the cut off trousers and tee shirt aesthetic that’s really only functional in the heart of summer.
