Did not happen to me. Some years back, on a club ride, at a ride light, just as it changed; some girls on the sidewalk, played grab *** with one of our club members. They looked like middle school age. Bet, it would not have happened had the guy been wearing just regular shorts.

The only way this would bother ME would be if I indeed had a small penis :o if you dont then slip into your tights and get to riding! :) and the next time some girl says, "Hey Mister, we can see how small your dick is in those pants!" you can reply, "You must have had a few large ones in that big mouth of yours!" ;)

The hemp knickers are expensive because they are being made in the US in very small batches (about 20 pairs of each size per size run). As stuff like this becomes more popular there will probably be companies who copy the design and do overseas production runs.

When I first heard about them (or the wool versions, those came out much earlier) I was dubious of their advantages over wool suitpants from the Goodwill. When I saw them in person it was clear that the design had many advantages for cycling.

:lol:

Actually I think I might put the hemp knickers on my christmas list! (I like knockers too, but wouldn't want 'em for myself).

What of it? They make me feel pretty when I'm riding.

That's a shame. If you were in the middle of a hard workout, I can understand the comment. It's not like you were representin'. However, if you were riding slower than girl joggers and at 1/2 mast when you got called out, that's just sad.

That was a joke. I was just riding slow, people do that sometimes when they are tired you know.

Perhaps, but looks are the only thing going for these girls. The next comment best illustrates what these types of girl bimbos are only good for.

While I do appreciate the true spirit of the comeback, do remember that this is a open forum where all types of people in all age groups roam freely. I don't want you to get into trouble with the moderator.

It sometimes helps to keep a perspective on what is happening to others-members of another gender, location, or even size! I was looking at a women's cycling clothing company located in the Portland OR area (a prime bike community). Here is some sampling of comments:

"...The next halfway warmish day we get here in northeast Indiana, I'm putting on my stunning new bike-chick clothes I ordered from Team Estrogen and taking my shiny new bike for a lunchtime spin on the backroads of Warsaw, Indiana where I work...."

"...I am a plus size woman...But I was so frustrated because I could not find biking shorts or shirts to fit me. Finding your website was a God-send. I received my new baggy bike shorts and biking tee yesterday and they fit wonderfully. I can't wait to get out on my bike this weekend! And I know now that I won't be embarrassed being around all those fit, great-looking women at the triathlon, because I will look and feel like an athlete too - something I never thought I could say...."

If you spend any amount of time on their Web site, you too will see the need of proper and good fit spans both genders as well as sizes. If the people have the money burning in their hands, there is a real lack of not treating the customer to his or her needs of not only looking good, but presentable in the enviroment (in this case other cyclists) and looking the part of a racer, mountain biker or whatever.

In a way, at my age, I would love to get noticed and singled out by girls when I ride by. So far, I've only been shouted at a number of times by young male idiots who seem to take pleasure in making fun of cyclists who wear a helmet.

Hey, even when I'm going slow for whatever reason, on my road bike, I'm never going so slow that jogging girls pass me. I think I would need one of those new Rivendell or Grand Bois bikes with 650B wheels and their balloon tires for that :-)

Don't take me too seriously.

Reminds me of the Seinfeld episode where George yells "I was in the pool! It was cold!" As you said it was cold. No shame in that! Anyway, I wear these http://www.rei.com/product/732756 . They do give a little of that butt pucker look due to the rear padding, but in my opinion they work well. Maybe try some leg warmers as well, underneath less "revealing" clothing. Next time, you can yell to one of the joggers that her shirt shows how small her t**ts are. Some people's children...

Obviously it suggests that folding bikes make your manhood smaller and they might even make you gay. Who knows?

I've had a "nice arse" comment, and was unable to determine whether it was sarcastic or not. I just said "Thanks!".

However, that woman was not present yesterday morning when, as I cranked out of the saddle to sprint from standstill across a busy road, my tights caught on the saddle horn, meaning that I rode bare-assed across 4 lanes of traffic, mooning anyone who cared to look. The comments from that would've been priceless.....

Once you got touched on your behind by a roadie while riding your folder and encounter with gays at your LBS while shopping for cycling outfit. Now comments about the size of your pecker while riding. Just curious what the motive behind your posts that involve a spice of sexuality or identity.

BikinginSeattle 11-06-07 10:01 AM

I used to wear tights but the girls would always run away in fear of my lycra clad monstrosity... or not.

EvilV 11-06-07 10:58 AM

I can't believe we're still discussing vamcha's todger two days later, or should that be his fantasies about girls surrounding him and commenting on it? I don't know, but anyway, I think Norfolk Bolt had it about right five posts up.

yamcha 11-06-07 12:55 PM

My name is yamcha not vamcha.

Spudmeister 11-06-07 01:14 PM

I once had a women pull up next to me in her car & tell me " You have a really nice a**." Now I wear my bike shorts everywhere.

Reminds me of the old joke about two friends. Igor never had any luck with the ladies. Women never even looked his way. Boris, on the other hand, always seemed to be dating new women.

Igor asked Boris what his secret was. Boris replied that when he went to the beach on the weekends, he always wore a speedo bathing suit. "But more than that", he winked, "I put a potato in my swimsuit to catch the girls' eyes."

A few days later Boris met Igor at the beach. Igor was despondent. "I tried your trick, Boris, but now the girls give me dirty looks and run away!"

"Igor, Igor..." said Boris sadly, "the potato goes in front."

You could have flipped it back at them by saying "Get a push up bra and a box of kleenex". :mad::rolleyes:
