    Tell you what; you do what no-one else has ever done, and do a study on how much faster Lycra is for MTBing, then come back with the results

    You don’t set the toughest challenges. I did a proper academic study of the fastest riders in the world at the highest profile mountain bike event in the world and 100% of the riders on the podium at every single running of the event were wearing lycra.

    Yeah, but only cos it’s comfier, faster drying/wicking and that, not cos of it’s aerodynamic properties ffs! 😆

    But we’re talking about ‘normal’ mtbers here, not mentalists. Most of us don’t want to look like spods out on the trails, frightening sheep, dogs, children and old ladies. 😐

    So stay at home – problem solved. Do sheep, children and old ladies pay the least bit of attention to what you’re wearing? More to the point, why are you so worried about what the sheep, children and old ladies think of you.

    Yes they do. And although I myself am well buff, I think others need to be responsible and considerate of others.

    So stay at home

    No you stay at home.

    But that won’t solve the problem of you looking like a spod out on the trails 😉

    I don’t look like a spod on the trails though. Whatever I wear.

    You do though.

    Be biased though as the quicker riders already wear Lycra

    Well the second wasn’t, shame I can’t remember what was the first wearing.

    Are we supposed to just know what you’re talking about?! Presumably the National Baggy Wearing Championships?
