Bib shorts are cycling shorts that are held up by a bib (integral suspenders/braces) instead of an elastic waistband.

Simply squat low to the ground (hidden from sight, of course), and pull one leg of your shorts up and over to the side, getting your chamois out of the way before you let it go. This method is probably the messiest/most likely to end with pee on your shoes, but it works in any shorts.
What is a good average speed for cycling?

Do you wear a shirt under cycling bibs?
Proper wearing of cycling shorts Rule #1 – you do NOT wear your underwear under cycling shorts. If you have bib shorts or bib knickers, your cycling jersey goes OVER the bib straps, not under. Thus, if you’re wearing them properly, nobody should ever know you’re wearing bibs if they see you during a ride.
