Fair enough. Yeah, my average ride is about 15 miles and I've not done longer than 25 yet. I just go out for an hour when my knee is feeling especially sore and I need a break from running. My arse was super sore the first few times but I just toughed it out and now it's not too bad. But I can't imagine riding more than 20 miles on a consistent basis without some sort of padding.

As far as the bright colors, I can see that. Biking up here is much more accepted up here and I (would like to) think looking out for bicyclists is on drivers' minds.

The only gear that I will get is the biking shorts with pads in them. I have had a few pairs and I almost cannot ride without them.

I always wear something over them and usually wear some kind of bright or white dry fit shirt.
