What a deep and perceptive, not to mention witty retort.

The irony is crushing me.

Is this an 'extreme' thread now?

Only I fear my pantaloons may be a little tight for said activity, and that perhaps a change into rather baggier clothage may see me more suitably attired.
Incidentally, this crushing, are you sure you didn't mean

And yes i've tried bike specific trousers, and they still dont offer the freedom of movement of shorts.

You need to try the kona primo pants. The old version.
They are amazing.
Honest.

I wouldn't want to ride with anythin else.

Wasn't someone banned from wearing lycra in downhill events because it gave them an unfair aerodynamic advantage. There was a massive thread about it on the old site.

I thought this had been done to death after the DH World Cup. Yes - the riders wore lycra skin suits as that made them quicker, but guess what? They've now been banned as they don't fit the "image" of DH. I'd say that proves who's more worried about their appearance.

Well DH should be all about winning. I want to see fast people going down scary slopes at hight velocity.

If I want to see cool/rad/fashionnable I'll watch a world disorder DVD or a Red bull rampage one.

Then for us (us being everyone save GNARGNAR SMEE AND GLUPTON who are riding gods) mere mortals, lycra or baggy wont change a thing.

the sooner all cyclists realise they look like tards, the better.

Actually, I look like a living god. All 65kgs of well-honed hairless and fake-tanned scrawn crammed into clinging colour-coordinated and heavily branded club kit. Grown women swoon and frot their reproductive parts as I ride past.

I'm confident I look a complete tard. That's why I wear exactly the same clothes if I'm riding a road bike or a mountain bike.
