Lycra Required?

Do you really need Lycra to be a serious cyclist?

There are many people who do not want to wear the stuff we usually wear and sometimes, I think they get treated as people who are not as serious.

What do you all think?
 
I think a chamois lined short is atleast semi-required, as wearing just shorts for people who ride more than 1-2 hours a week is not likely to happen. outside of that, no

Without a chamois, I don't think I would like cycling that much LOL

I'm Team Lycra but to each their own :)
