The alternative to 100 mile bike rides in sweltering heat is to be indoors?

Obviously no one needs to risk heat stroke. That doesn't mean it's right the way people ride bicycles today. It violates decorum.

Long clothes really are not nearly the problem people make them out to be. I almost never wear shorts and seldom wear short sleeves. It's not a problem for me.

Quote from: Sede Catholic

Jogging in shorts is definitely not acceptable for a traditional Catholic.

Even if we think that it causes some minor inconvenience, we have to dress modestly.

What an ignorant blanket statement. I can agree with this comment in regard to people (primarily females of ALL ages) who purposely, or out of incognizance due to social engineering from a decayed culture, wear shorts so small, which is unfortunately the sign of the times, the lower parts of their gluteus maximus is showing; but there are modest athletic shorts (covering well below mid-thigh or to the knee) that can be worn that serve a necessary functional purpose - ventilation, wicking perspiration, mobility, etc.

All shorts are immodest.
That applies to shorts worn by anyone of either sex.
If any parts of the legs are naked, there is no modesty.
That is obvious.
No Catholic prior to the twentieth century would have disputed that.

Any traditional Catholic should be able to understand that.
