I am totally a pro cyclist now, right? So, as such, I can say that as I delve deeper into this new culture I am finding garments that appall me to the very core. They hurt me on the inside and go against everything I stand for as a professional person of good taste. If you are someone who chooses to wear the following styles, I apologize, but this is my blog so I can speak the truth. Please enjoy part 1 in (another) ongoing series of terrifying cycling gear.
THE MANGY CHEETA
Autumn sent me these charming shorts. They are fabulous in case you have to roll up to your job as an exotic dancer after you finish your ride. Saves SO MUCH TIME!!!!
THE PARTY IN YOUR PANTS
First: these look like psychedelic vomit. Second: they are men’s pants.
THE CROUCHING TIGER
THE MIGRAINE
I mean...I think Gem had these pants. And while she was fabulous, I don't think that means a grown man in 2010 should wear them.
THE CROUCHING TIGERI think this one goes out to my BIL, Chris. You would look stellar in this. But I would not speak to you in pulic if you wore it. Also: it's UNISEX!!!
I KNEW I could contribute something to the world of cycling other than making everyone feel better about their own skills!

You do realize you just threw down the gauntlet for him to go out and find this (or an equally horrid) shirt and wear it around you.
ReplyDeleteWho knew - Ed Hardy for bikers!
ReplyDeleteCaitlin - if you stare at the Mangy Cheetah long enough you'll see a face. I don't know whose, you'll just see a face. Extra value. That's all I'm saying.
ReplyDeleteIvy was raving about how wonderful it is to have you along on TCC when she was doing my hair yesterday morning. Congrats!
Someone you barely know....if at all: former backstage person with LCHS drama.

I've just ordered two of each of these items, including the cheetah fuzz shorts. I've decided to mix it up by wearing the psychedelic tights with the crouching tiger jersey. Ladies, watch out.
