spandex pants and spandex shorts

Any thoughts on which is better? or no real difference?

personally i prefer the spandex shorts but some times in winter the pants are preferable but i mainly go with the shorts

pants for cooler weather shorts for warmer, wouldn’t race in pants though.

I have gotten in a habbit of wearing 2-4 pairs of spandex shorts durring my races depending on the weather, long tights are great for warming up

why not race in pants?
