Get some cycling sandals and you'll really have some fine tan lines.

Oh sure, first a glove tan, then a swoopy helmet with skintite jersey, then reports of speed cadence and distance records set.
The crowd cheers........"Roadie.....Roadie....Roadie...Roadie..Roadie.Roadie"

When you special order a bike rack so it will match the color of your bike........well, I don't even want to think about that.

Now you have to get a set of clothes where everything is covered but your hands, then wear it out under the sun to even things out.

The lycra can wait until you start doing 30-50 mile rides on a regular basis. I'd say about 2 months.

I live in the St Louis area so it's kind of a long ride but it still might be worth it. At the shop where I work, we're only allowed to sell the good stuff to folks who have the right glove tan.
