Yep, it's true I tells ya!!
Sometimes on really hot days I ride in a tank-top (we call them "singlets"), and I tell ya, absolutely NOBODY speaks to me. Normally, when I'm wearing all the "right stuff", a few roadies will at least grunt in my direction.
Why would the same guys say "g'day" one day, then snob me off the next day because I'm riding in a singlet?
This kinda proves the snob-factor to me.
