Any ride over an hour leads to chaffing. It's a hybrid bike. Just wearing longer gym shorts. I know it's not ideal, but I also don't want to wear biking shorts. Don't want to be that guy and look funny.

I had the same issue monday [chapped ass], I do a lot of rides w/o proper riding shorts [just normal shorts] and monday after ~100 miles or so in 3-4 days my ass was pretty sore. normally you just toughen up and deal w/it or wear biking shorts w/pad
1) Synthetic wicking underwear 2) Synthetic thin shorts 3) Comfy seat 4) thigh/crack lube - I just use diaper cream with zinc but I'm not a pro like Mr. Mom

Or wear gym shorts over bike shorts. Or get a liner style. I've been known to to any of the above while commuting. step 3: increase gradually Step 4: cream
