Clydesdales/Athenas (200+ lb / 91+ kg) - Athena and Shorter Shorts?

nm

Wouldn't blind me....

I see nothing wrong with them at all. (Matter of fact, not to be too forward, but I think they look pretty good, actually :D)

Why thank you! Keep in mind I am the average recreational rider and grandmother. I'm sure I would get a different response in a racing forum, which is not the real world for most of us.

Ah, but I don't care what twig people and human Greyhounds think ;):p

Nothing wrong with those (or you). Enjoy your tan.

As a larger full figured woman, would it be acceptable to wear these shorts in public on a ride? Or is it something that would blind one's eyes?

Bgurl, those look great! If they're comfortable, that's a plus, but trust me, you don't have to worry about blinding too many guys with them (but keep an eye on 'em if too many spend a lot of time following you).;)

You look fine! Enjoy your riding :) .

That's why we hang out in the Clyde/Athena forum. Who cares what they think.

I agree with Tom though (don't tell my wife). I think they look great. I have never been happier than the first day I stopped wearing basketball shorts over my bike shorts. Just wear them, and anyone who's worth anything will respect your for being out there riding.

Hey, trust me, I find a set of shorts or bibs that fit and work, I don't care what the twigs think. They look ok to me. You have pretty nice grandma legs by the way.
