Not much to add, I suggest going the lycra with shorts over route, because after a few rides, it's more than likely you will end up wanting to ditch the shorts and just wear the lycra. For me it happened toward the end of my ride one day. I started thinking, this stuff will breathe better if I just ditched the shorts, so I stopped, took them off and stuffed them in a jersey pocket. It felt alot better just riding in my bibs, and that's how I go out now. I think I'm starting to actually look damn good in lycra, even if no one else agree's with me.
