Seth is at it again.

[ridr]

WOW, where can I get a cool LATEX cycling suit for the wife? Does it come with a whip?

 

[Kent]

Isnt that Hasselbacher and Wrolich??

 

Yip!

Seth is really a very funny person. He LOVES to wind us cyclists up! And we 'play into his hands' every time!

Sadly for us' date=' he does have a point. Imagine Herschell cruising into Giovanni's fully strapped into his protective helmet, gloves, leg pads and crotch-box..and sitting down for a coffee at tea-time?

Or how about John Smit in boots, shoulder pads and gum-guard hitting News Cafe for a muffin at half-time ! I don't think so!

I'm a cyclist and I really don't believe there is any sporting kit LESS flattering (and on many a male subject, less revealing) than what we wear when we 'do our thing'!

I just LOVE my mid-ride coffee stops...but then I don't have a 'hang-bal' problem to speak of! So I probably slip under Seth's beady radar!

what a stoopid argument - i bet they've sat in the local cricket / rugby club's bar kitted out after practise, drinking "whatever".

You Capetonians need to get a life. Seriously. You must be frigging bored down there if this is the type of crap that makes the news. Oh yes' date=' sorry, your whole life centers around being cool and being seen at the cool coffee shops, only with cool friends and wearing cool clothes. Come to think of it, real life does not have any meaning in Cape Town.[/quote]

proximities

- cyclist - road - coffee shop

cricket/rugby - field - club bar

for Hersch to finish batting practise jump into his car and arrive at said trendy coffee shop with his pads/helmet/thigh guard still on begs belief. but maybe he will maybe he wont. depends what he's on that day!!

Haha, classic reply, and so true too. It's not a Capetown thing only though. When I lived in Jozi, every day of the weekend I'd see spandex clad riders hanging out at VidaE in Greenside. Helmets on etc.

 

Personally, I find the whole spandex thing offensive. If you're a fine tuned athlete, trying to shave microseconds off your times, fine, but most of the time its some middle aged, fat assed twat who packs his thunder ass into these tiny, lycra shorts, along with an equally repulsive boep, and heads out IN PUBLIC! Great, so now I must look at your fat arse, while I try and pass you and your mates who think you own the road, riding next to each other. hahaha, truly it is pathetic.

 

Here is the million buck question: how does it help you? surely losing 20 kgs of fat off that ass would benefit your speed more? It's even more lame that these fools wear their helmets at these public places. It gives all cyclists a bad rap. Really, there is nowhere to draw the line here. If it's acceptable that the spandex clowns act like this, then it should be fine to walk around in a Speedo with a cowboy hat on. It's just offensive.

Hey Buttsickness, that is quite a pervey little thought there. I could imagine Holy Roller doing this with his pink Boa, cowboy boots and some gold chains to round it off.

He could probably pull it off in Seapoint at night quite easily.
