And that new road hazard, MAMILS in Mtb gear on a road bike with tweener tyres...WTF is up with that?

 

This is a classical oxymoron.

"Mamil or MAMIL is someone who rides an expensive racing bicycle for leisure, wearing endurance- and performance-enhancing body-hugging jerseys and shorts. The word was reportedly coined by British marketing research firm Mintel in 2010." Wikipedia.

Mtb gear = Baggies and loose fitting shirts 

No matter how hard you try you can never be a MAMIL in Mtb gear  :eek:

Are you a roadie really if you cant do this?  :whistling:

 

Got the Selfie thing down, will attempt the instagram live thing at Amashova this weekend. Take a page out your book

But the Shova is a closed race, there wont be any cars that you could hold up while riding 3 abreast?

Unless we are very loosely using the term "baggie" and "Loose-fitting"

This is true, will have to reserve this for another time then.

 

On a side note, how long till we see the Savages using a selfie stick on their morning rides?

There would have to be traffic behind us to be held up, we could be 12 abreast, if there is no car, then not holding anyone up :P
