Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

It's no more gay than those ridiculous threads constantly being started up about how women look- their legs, their thighs, etc. So it's ok to dissect/insult/objectify women's legs, but suddenly, if a man's legs are being discussed, the thread is gay?

Someones insecure...how is it gay to notice something about a great racer that you look up to? Do you wear lycra when you ride? Do you worry if yo look gay?

His smile is so adorable. Legs notwithstanding, Ivan Basso is hotter than donut grease.

It's highly unfortunate that I had a co-worker who looked quite a lot like Basso who was intensely annoying. Every time I see Basso, I think of my annoying ex-co-worker, which is, of course, annoying.

But did he have Basso's legs though? - that's the question we're left to ponder ...

Well the gentleman may be genuinely concerned that the original poster has been spending way too much time checking out Basso's legs, so much so that it's having a negative impact on his riding
