mobi-cam Posted November 21, 2007 Posted November 21, 2007 anybody aware of a good reason why cyclists socks are creaping closer to the knees - maybe we could market those sort of leg warmer things we saw in that movie most of us wont admit watching - flashdance
Mudsimus Posted November 21, 2007 Posted November 21, 2007 I'm more worried about shorts that creeps closer to the knees...ala Lance. That just looks silly.
Red Zone Posted November 21, 2007 Posted November 21, 2007 there also seems to be a combination of mullets and long socks
Spinnekop Posted November 21, 2007 Posted November 21, 2007 I'm more worried about shorts that creeps closer to the knees...ala Lance. That just looks silly. Function over fashion I suppose.......
AndreZA Posted November 21, 2007 Posted November 21, 2007 I don't have a problem with the long shorts, but the long socks are terrible. I can't even wear white socks on the road anymore. And why is this in Classifieds?
NotSoBigBen Posted November 21, 2007 Posted November 21, 2007 Parra - thought the same, maybe short socks coming up for sale?
mobi-cam Posted November 21, 2007 Author Posted November 21, 2007 trying to sell those legwarmer things - doesnt seem to be a market - what about cycling short extentions - or helmets that fit the wrong way around mmmmm...... now theres a market. or whatabout second hand bottles that get moered on the side of the road by pros - now we talking !!!!
whitesox Posted November 21, 2007 Posted November 21, 2007 It's a trend I started a few years ago, thats why. It looks cool....
Spinnekop Posted November 21, 2007 Posted November 21, 2007 It looks cool.... If you are 15 with a mullet!
Red Zone Posted November 21, 2007 Posted November 21, 2007 It looks cool.... If you are 15 with a mullet!
whitesox Posted November 21, 2007 Posted November 21, 2007 Even Christophe Moreau has caught on, and he certainly isn't 15 or wears a mullet. Neither do I.... Its style...
whitesox Posted November 21, 2007 Posted November 21, 2007 Rule 3 of the "Official Rules of the Euro Cyclist" states: 3. The Socks must extend no less than 2cm below the main bulge of your calf muscle, and shall never extend further than 1cm past the primary calf muscle bulge. All socks shall be white in colour with prominent logo placement.
FrancoisO Posted November 21, 2007 Posted November 21, 2007 I think they just hide there lack of any calves
whitesox Posted November 21, 2007 Posted November 21, 2007 Read th rule....2cm BELOW....and not more than 1cm ABOVE the main bulge... Only funriders wear shorts socks, and it looks like your shoes are hungry and swallowing your socks....
