Summer cycling trousers

[ian emmerson]

Can anyone recomend a pair of long "lycra" type trousers for summer use ?.
I am being plagued by insect bites which is becoming worrying given the amount of bites.

Or maybe i should just pedal faster ?

Altura summer cruisers, very similar to the Ronhill Bikesters, I have both the summer cruisers and the winter cruisers.

I know it does. I was answering the original question....the one about insect bites....

Try looking at a pair of runnng tights from Decathlon. It's what I wear when it is cold and they seem to fit your needs nicely and are under £15. Try before you buy, I need the 2XL size but don't consider myself a 2XL guy!

As i post i'm wearing a pair of Ron Hill Bikesters(i cycle to my local pub and back ), that i bought in 1998. They've done thousands of miles and been washed hundreds of times, yet they are still in good shape apart from a few plucks, and the waistband cord has too many knots in it. As you say, they're not too clingy, so i don't look like i'm wearing tights when i'm having a pint.
