LOL. And I am soooo sick of bike shorts that come down to my knees. Might as well be wearing knickers. Where did all the 5"-6" shorts go? Today's 9"-10" shorts are just too long.
I really need to get some vintage or retro cycling clothing to go with my bikes. Somehow the cutoff shorts and T-shirts I wore back in the day wouldn't look right today.
