Default repair for bicycle shorts (crossposted)

(cross posted rcts and a.sew)

This is probably an easy repair, but I mainly sew cotton quilts.
So, I hope someone will have a suggestion for best repair of
bicycle shorts. The edge of the lycra is off the elastic band at
the thigh. What thread is best? What stitch is best? I have a
Pfaff with many stitches.

Thanks so much. PAT in VA/USA
