Why do you think that nothing under the shorts is no longer the way to go?
Anal leakage might do it for me but then I'm not sure.

Get rid of the underwear. Perhaps try some chamois cream.

What difference does age make? The chafing of anything under bike shorts
doesn't change with age. BTW, I like BodyGlide better than powder. I used to
use powder but BodyGlide is much cleaner and it lasts longer too.

I use some Chamois cream but only when I feel a good chafe coming on.
The rest of the time Nothing comes between me and my Brooks B17.
Oh, except for the shorts.

Just the thought of an animal wearing lipstick makes me want to heave.

Thanks everyone! Confirmation that I haven't gone completely nuts is
a good thing. Now... Where's that kilt?
