[Closed] Are you 60kg?

Em82! how was your holiday?

45kg 160cm. When people are being polite, they say boyish 🙄

5' 10.5" and 70kg at the last annual weigh in. Bike is about 12kg, I guess. Tandem is a LOT heavier. I'm 43 and can go down to 65kg during the summer. Look a bit ill though.

Hey emz, was fab thank you, warmer in France than back in blighty! Nearly got roasted one night though, got woke up middle of the night and the camper next to us had caught fire, blew up then rolled into someone's house. Very eastenders stylie. Lol

Oh my Gosh!

makes for a great holiday disaster story though. No one hurt I hope?

Yey emsz - 45kg here too 🙂 But only 150cm, so have retained some curves (hopefully in the right places!)

Surely this means that as uber-lightweights we can ride wherever we like as we'll just float over the trails causing zero erosion ...

It did rather, no one hurt,a very frightened old lady from the house with a yappy dog didn't look too pleased. Didn't see the couple from the van but assume they were not dead cos the firebrigade chucked it all on a van and told us all where to go sleep for the night. Never moved so fast with nothing on, my other half drove off down the road with his knob hanging out, that probably added to the old ladies shock tbf 🙂

Sue W teenier than me!! I managed to put on a couple of kgs, and suddenly got some hips and boobs!!

Emma! 😳 That definitely comes under clean undies/what would your mum say territory!!

they say boyish

*Swoon*

Perfect 🙂

Lol, def emsz!!

Just got off the scales and they say 64kg, though that's probably a bit skewed from having just finished a tesco curry deal for 2...

Nearly got roasted one night though

Good lord...were there professional footballers about?

6'1" and 70kg, only 16 though.

5 10 and 66kg
Why I can't climb hills is a mystery

yes McHamish, there were lots of them 🙄 Shudda seen that one coming 😯

5 10 and 66kg
Why I can't climb hills is a mystery

because you have legs like this? 😀

give that lass some pies - she needs 'em

Why I can't climb hills is a mystery

According to my mother in law...I'm now 'a little more than chunky'.

I'm sure she's trying to give me an eating disorder!

I'm 90kgs and 6'1, I expect if I dropped to 60kgs I would look like I did have an eating disorder.

55kg. My MTB is only 12kg too..

12kg? I hope it has 160mm of travel at that weight! Lose the polka-dot jersey (there's a thread from a few months ago discussing why this is not the done thing).

58kg, 5' 9" here.

Me and my race bike together are under 11 1/2 stone. I'm 5'11 and it's an HT with 100mm coil-sprung forks...

you've inspired me to weigh myself for 1st time in ages

wasting away at 88kg / 14st

anybody want to know the ipants diet plan ?

About 95kg which is light compared to how much I weighed this time 4 years ago 0_0

15kg is the weight i need to carry to pass annual fitness tests in the army so i regularly just go for a run/walk for a few hours with it.

5'11", 61kg, 4% body fat. Quite nippy on the bike but lacking a six pack.

Twin on a sportive last week?

Well Twin must have put on a fair bit of weight as 2 months ago he was 17.5st (111kg) and now he's 124kg !!!

At 80kg and 5ft10 (and a bit) I feel positively fat compared to some of the people on this thread!

For the first time in my life I might add... The fact I'm not far off the same weight as emsz and Sue_W together is concerning! Seriously, most people would still consider me "slim", you gals must be almost non existent! At 19 I was just over 60kg at the same height, and I looked a mess, all skin and bone...

Eat some food people, it's good for you! 😕

No I think it's ok for some of the ladies on here to be quite tiny, as tiny is good. More environmentally friendly, as Sue quite correctly points out. Less material used for clothing, and us smaller folk subsidise bulky folk in that respect.

I'm a small bloke, but I'm staggered that there's people much taller than me who weigh less. Do you have worms? 😯

How can I weigh 62kg? Where is it all?? 😯

"give that lass some pies - she needs 'em"

if you saw how much I eat you wouldn't be saying that

"Why I can't climb hills is a mystery"

I suffer the same problem, ought to fly up hills, but it never seems to happen!

If you ate more pies you would have the energy to climb hills.

Used to be 60kg a few months ago, gave up the running and hit the weights, now a massive 65kgs. 5 8" btw.

Eat some food people, it's good for you!

The amount of times I have heard that 🙄

5'10" float around 70kg. What do you mean? of course it's all muscle!

The amount of times I have heard that

Likewise, I used to hear it all the time too... Whilst tucking away anywhere between about 3000-4000 calories per day... To gain weight, up to the heady heights of a whole 80kg now (about spot on for a healthy bloke of my height), I have had to eat ridiculous amounts of food, sustained over a good few years, combined with lots of bike riding to build up some muscle! I know my metabolism will just stop one day, but for now I'm still doing ok...

Always been small, mum is the same size as me, Dad is slim and not tall either.

[i]Eat some food people, it's good for you![/i]

Porridge, sandwich, banana, twix, soup, bread... Haven't stopped all day!

The OP thought i was under 60 kg and hence the vegan line but I am not I am hefty 65 kg at 5 ft 9. I probably could get to 60 but would not look well

Porridge, sandwich, banana, twix, soup, bread... Haven't stopped all day!

It's the size of the portions my dear that counts, not how often... I can regularly hit 1500-2000 calories per evening meal, just by virtue of the fact I normally eat twice what the avergae person eats (or more) at most sittings! 😛

65kg, 6ft 2.. erm.. don't look out of proportion though.. too badly..
[img] [/img]

Are you 60kg?

I am, if I only put one foot on the scales.

prob dot on 60... only 5'6" ish though.

added camelback etc, more like 63... bikes only 13ish I guess, so about right for me...

I'm not sure I see the relevance though; the earth doesn't crumble beneath me or anyone else I know as I/we roll along; has more to do with if you use good technique (amount of braking etc) - walking or biking - surely than the physical weight?

I'm sure at the extreme end of things it comes into it a little, (130kg of bike&rider under locked brake on a gradient >15% perhaps - but if done scientifically that would be excluded unless the actual focus of the study) but if we are comparing averages, then it needs to be on a trail with particular construction standard rather than user weight? Maybe if also inc horses and the enormous variance there, then fair enough, but not biker vs walker, surely?

'Eat some food' ... I do ... constantly! I'm like the hungry caterpillar 🙂

I guess I just run around a lot (was asked yesterday by someone at work 'where I put it all' as I happily made a significant contribution to the consumption of a shared 'back to work' cake - but then they'd just driven to work and I'd cycled 25 miles to get in)

think I'm going to take Elf's line that us smaller peeps subsidize you biggies 🙂 I'll expect discounts off everything and special allowances like being able to take extra luggage on planes - me and my bike combined is surely less than the average person.

one piece of chocolate cake, one ice cream cone, one pickle, one slice of swiss cheese... 🙂

Having reread the article it [i]may[/i] have just been using 60/75kg as an example and as long as the difference between walker and cyclist wasn't much the erosion is the same eg a 60kg walker vs a 75kg biker all in does similar erosion also presumably 80/95 90/105 and ahem beyond. Dunno tho maybe ramblers are all skinny beggars 🙂

after reading the other women's weights on this thread I'm feeling distinctly heavy 😯

I'm 12 stone (76kg) at 5'11"; you can still see a couple of ribs.

I could manage 11 stones without looking ill. But it would require some serious dieting.

but then they'd just driven to work and I'd cycled 25 miles to get in)

Hmm, I just cycled 20 miles to get in, I still can't fill my face with cake and weigh 60kg or even 75kg for that matter.

6 foot 2 74 kg. I hope to lose the extra 14 kg of timber by the start of the first grand tour this year. Which I believe is this Saturday.

This is perfectly reasonable. Airlines should have a set weight limit for each passenger including baggage. Smaller/lighter people get to carry more. Why should I pay as much as a larger person when transporting me requires less fuel? Why should I pay as much for a bike frame when tiny ones use less material?

after reading the other women's weights on this thread I'm feeling distinctly heavy

Nonsense. 58kgs is no way 'heavy'.

Some of the blokes on here could do with a visit from Marjorie though.

[img] [/img]

5'10". Pretty much the heaviest I have ever been now at a smidge over 70 kgs (11 stone).

I've always been on the skinny side, put a lot on from rowing for a few years. I've lost a bit off the shoulders and put more on the thighs since switching to bikes.

I might be a bit harsh, but I see a lot of biffers out on MTBs. Its good to see people getting out on bikes, I'm not knocking them!

Kat - some of these ladies are [i]tiny[/i], I wouldn't worry! Go and stand next to ton!

aw, thankyou elf - (that's what I get for temporarily immersing myself in the virtual mtb world rather than the real one outside) in reality I know have some delightful curves and I have no intention of getting rid of them 🙂

I know have some delightful curves

(Raises eyebrow...)

[img] [/img]

79kg and 6ft 3" here pretty average i think certainly not skinny and not fat

oh and the bike comes in at 13 kg

so thats 92kg for those that cant do maths

If you're being serious I can give you a few pointers as to why..? 🙂

I was 63 kg when I was about 12.

Incidentally, that's probably the last time I weighed myself as I'm not a professional boxer.

180cm (5 ft 11) and 65kg. I'd also struggle to eat any more cake and pies even if tried 😀

6ft 2 and 91kgs. I'm 18% body fat but don't think I'm enormous.

However, this thread would prove otherwise....

114kg.

Go home pretenders.

(although for the record, I tend to lose around 20kgs in bowel movements alone...)

Taxing folk on planes for being heavy? Pfft...

Anyone under 70kg should be put in the cargo hold. Skinny bastards...

I'm 172cm tall and weigh 62kgs. I'm pretty skinny but strong for my weight I reckon. I always need to get the smallest men's clothes. I've always been able to eat as much as I can and not put on any weight. I'm a vegetarian though, not that I was heavier when I are meat.

EDIT: I can't believe some people weigh nearly twice what I do, I can't even imagine what that feels like. But don't misunderstand, it's always good to see people out and about on bikes.

(although for the record, I tend to lose around 20kgs in bowel movements alone...)

Once a fortnight?

114kg tho? More like bull-arse.

Yep. Elf can go in the overhead locker, and emsz can go under the seat in front of you.

No, [i]you[/i] should be put in the cargo hold. Bloater.

See that, that's your 'plane that is. And your vast bulk has caused the undercarriage to collapse....

[img] [/img]

Seriously, Elf. Your photo searching skills are incredible.

Do you find this stuff then make a mental note of it for when you need visual aids in a STW thread?

Heh! You like that one, innit?  😀

Love the plane 🙂 am now getting funny looks for laughing to myself.

Keep 'em coming, I'm stuck on a long, boring train journey, and after all the talk about eating more, and pictures of buns, I've now eaten all my lunch and there's no cake available!

Mind you, I'm working on dome research about health and outdoor recreation - the proportion of people who get enough exercise from outdoor pursuits ... But there's no discussion about the physical activity / cake consumption ratio yet 🙂

And none of you should fret about your size - I'm only light 'cos I'm a short-arse!

I'm 68kg stripped. Ride at 11 stone 7 lbs with tack although I could probably get to 11 stone with a lighter saddle and some dieting.

Well Twin must have put on a fair bit of weight as 2 months ago he was 17.5st (111kg) and now he's 124kg !!!

Not played rugby or biked very much for the last two months due to a dodgy knee. A stone a month is a lot though isn't it? Maybe I should get a grip on this before its too late.

114kg tho? More like bull-arse

(sigh)... 'Tis true...

Although the half of my heart that is bovine weighs 17kg. At least. Fact.

It's why I walk with a stoop to the left.

No, you should be put in the cargo hold. Bloater

Child-seat for you, Puck 8)

I'm 5'6" on a good day and weigh 60kg.. I have done for years.. My weight hasn't fluctuated by more than a couple of kg since I was in my teens... I'm now 35 and waiting for middle-aged-spread to kick in!!

When I left uni, I was 10.5 stone. A year later, I was only 10, but that was with the stress of teaching in a crap primary school.

It was only in my mid-20s that I started to fill out at all and I was nudging at 12 stone a couple of years ago.

After a couple of days of no snacking and no alcohol, I was just under 11 stone this morning.

Never been big and never want to be.

Not been 60kg since I was about 10-12. Currently 106kg, 6'1. Plus bike and gear I'd say an all-up weight of about 125kg.

A pic from a year ago, I weighed about 19st then.[url= http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5308/5686956958_2358af226c.jp g" target="_blank">http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5308/5686956958_2358af226c.jp g"/> [/img][/url]
