What is the deal? I know you've guys seen them---wearing bright ass red and yellow or "French" Blue matching shirts and biker pants...yet they have a gut, and skinny ass legs...and they act so serious too...

WTF is up with that?

I agree, disgusting. Here in Melbourne is seems like it is the thing to do if you are over 50 and have never exercised. The go in and out of cafes at weekends with that lycra on and those clip clop shoes.

Here it's 35-45 yr old seemingly "professional men", as they have those high price bikes, helmets, etc...some have the mirrors on the helmets....some of these dudes spend more time and money it seems on the gear than the actual biking aspect.

Same reason women and men get tattoo sleeves. They think they look cool.

It's an ego-driven merry go round with a spritz of midlife crisis.

You would not believe some of the money they're laying down for the bikes, technical clothing, coaches, etc...     All to fart up and down the coast at 14 mph and never learning how to truly suffer on the bike.

Playing mating games with other so inclined men. The bright colors of the Peacock with the cute little spandex butt in the air. I see "gangstalean"(whatever that means) has taken notice.

We have a lot of those people. I figure they just have a spandex fetish, and just buy the bike to legitimize their kink.   ;D

One crazy looking older man, almost Hulk Hogan look like with the hair and all but smaller obviously, used to come to my gym wearing that lycra outfit and a helmet. One of his staple exercises was the behind the back upright row.

I agree they should take a ride with Arnold on a cruiser wearing shorts I bet he would kick their butts.
