mobi-cam Posted November 21, 2007 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndreZA Posted November 21, 2007 Share 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? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotSoBigBen Posted November 21, 2007 Share Parra - thought the same, maybe short socks coming up for sale? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mobi-cam Posted November 21, 2007 Share 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 Share 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitesox Posted November 21, 2007 Share 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.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
