When it's too chilly for shorts.....!
Any advice folks on comfortable casual cycling trousers with adequate room for beefy thighs, neat at the ankle and a bit of 'give' in the material. Any brands that work well?

I found a used pair of Rapha stretchy trousers on eBay , only £20. They are just the job. The material gives just enough and they are so comfy I wear them as a general pair of trousers now, not just on the bike. They are a sandy colour.
Marks and Spencers do something similar, but I haven't tried them. They are about £45 new I think.

Ron Hill Tracksters for £10 = light, stretchy, elegant 1960s school PE teacher look and a bargain!

Another for Ron Hill Tracksters. Had several pairs for years look reasonably " normal " off the bike.

Me too for Ron Hill tracksters plus the heavier weight ones for winter. Warm, fairly windproof, dry quickly and cheap and weigh very little. I used these for years for rock climbing and mountaineering and now for cycling
