not that I have anything against lycra, but for slightly more leisurely road rides is there anything out there that are normal shorts, but less baggie than your traditional mtb style?

I use endura singletracks as road/touring shorts, not too baggy nice zipped vents very comfy and hard wearing.

Haglöfs Lizard Shorts - not cycling shorts, but a stretchy soft shell fabric that's nice compromise between baggy enough not to look daft and close enough not to flap around. Not bike shorts, but mine get worn a lot on the cross bike over bib shorts or a padded liner short.

I've got a pair of [url= http://www.rapha.cc/gb/en/shop/touring-shorts/product/TSH03 ]Rapha Touring Shorts[/url] (grey) for sale. 30" waist.
Brand new, never worn for cycling. Personally I find them a bit short in the leg for me but from my user name you may work out that I have extra long legs... 😉

£40, post back on here if you're interested.
