Forgot my socks!!

I have my gear bag with me at work. I am going to do a 20 mile workout ride after I get off. Only one problem, I forgot my socks!!!

Going home first will make it pretty late to get my ride in. Do I

A) Wear my regular socks (tan) and look like a dweeb.
B) Go to the LBS on the way and pick up a pair $$.
C) Hope the wife wants to go for a walk, tell here to meet me outside and bring some socks. (This will excuse me for the late part)

Yeah, I'll just scoot 'em way down. Who knows, maybe I'll start a trend.

Wear your regular socks. If you don't say anything, no one will notice.

Alot of roadies are going with this new trend of riding with no socks. I have done this but only on my trainer in the garage.

If you want to start a trend wear them pulled all the way up instead

Well, it's raining so hard you can't even see 50 ft. I guess I'll be at home on the trainer tonight anyhow.

My mtb shoes are so well made you can use them without socks.
