They make look Freddy, but some of them will drop you like a hot potato. While doing an organized metric in Berks and Lancaster Counties in PA (Floyd Landis country. Remember him?) I rode for a while with a Mennonite teen. He had on those stiff, back jeans some of them wear and a long sleeve, plaid shirt. But he also wore cycling shoes with clipless pedals. He was very strong. During another even out that way I drafted for a bit behind a Mennonite teen girl wearing a dress and bonnet riding a Raleigh road bike. She had a milk crate on the rear rack, mirrors on both sides and, dig this, a rear Campy disc wheel.
