Thanks for all of these great responses. I was hesitant to ask the question but I'm glad I did!

Which ever you chose, make sure your belts don't pinch the big feeder tubes.
(I had the tailor do a pocket pass-through)

It's no fun finding out your "cool" shirt, now devoid of circulation, has miraculously become an amazing heat retention device.

I cut a hole in the left pocket and took it to the seamstress to be hemmed.

She did a beautiful job repairing the hole (very nice Asian lady - I think there was a language/communication issue). I had to explain that I wanted the hole but I am sure she just thought I wanted it to be able to play with myself.

Everyone thinks I'm warming up the tires when I'm weaving around on the pace lap. Reality is I'm trying to shake up the crushed ice in the cooler so the pump will start to work!

Dave, you don't need a cool suit in the North East. You don't know what hot is. Now in Texas.........
