MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
Ok....whilst trying to find a pair of mountaineering trousers I have struggled to find anything to fit over my chunky ( muscle bound - of course) thighs.....
Which got me thinking am I a distant relative of Mr Tumulus, an offspring of the Hoy?
So come on what size thighs have we all got.(circumference for the pi55takers)
26 inches here.
21"
A difficult measurement to take in the office, but around 20 inches.
Slight pause
Talk amongst yourselves whilst drawers are emptied in search of that pesky cloth tape measure, non shatterproof rulers are pushed to their max, builders are seen wandering round looking for the tape measure that 'was there a minute ago'
No idea, not big, solid muscle though, but I'm built for endurance not quick bursts of speed.
Mine are just under 29" round. When I first measured that I couldn't believe it but when comapring to my wife's waist it seemed to hold true.
24"
edit - Thanks to the thigh master i got from bidup TV
Jeez Matt....do you hang around snow covered lamposts keeping your eye on the rear of wardrobes and chomping turkish delight?
Where are you measuring btw - above the knee? below the scrote? In the middle?
pretty dam big.........
At the widest point so....middle I guess. 😆
lol @ Brack.
Nope, ex rugbyist and rowingist and long term cyclist together with just generally being built on the sturdy side. 6'4" and 18 stone at the moment.
Does cause issues with buying trousers and stuff though
Beat this for weirdness:
widest point (near top) - just under 26"
narrowest (above knee) - just over 16.5"
26" here. I also struggle with trousers as I have a relatively small waist (32")
And Sir Chris Hoy's are?
'scaredy'I reckon Hoy must have quads of those dimensions as they are true pistons.....ie tapered.
Hoy has 27 inch thighs
LOL !
yeh, I've often been compared to Chris Hoy 😉
29''
Can anyone beat the 'quadzilla of STW'?
....Mr Tumulus ( oh hang on he's 6'4)
.....the very nice ex rugby playing matthew_h
...and Mr Ton 🙄
above knee - 17.5
at top - 26
pwoar 🙂
27"
19.5"....
That's pretty puny then!
29" is still the measuremant to beat...
Can anyone ( crowd gasps) beat that??
23 1/2. I'm quite pleased as the missus says I have legs like a chicken.
My side kick Vicky just caught me measuring myself with a tie. Now I have to explain what I was up to.

That must have taken you ages to measure...thanks for the effort.
Was that an average measurement or have you one leg that is thicker? 😛
sfb 21" thighs?! that's minute! mine are 24" and slimmish, I thought.
Can't believe I just measured my thighs..... have work to do...... must not get sidetracked...... I might need to block STW from my own computer 🙁
ok, just read jonedwards. sfb overtaken in the quadzero stakes.
barnses leg are like little kids legs, almost hobbit like, same as his feet.... 😉
sfb 21" thighs?! that's minute! mine are 24" and slimmish, I thought.
I just tried it standing up and got 23" 🙂
So let me confirm sfb...
You are bigger when erect?
Looks like 23".
All perfectly honed muscle of course...
Damn 27.5 on one side and 26.5 on the other,, no wonder i go round in circles 😯
Don't tell me you have to measure standing up? I'll get weird looks from the rest of the office...
Oh hang on I've just re-measured them with the help of a cloth tape measure rather than a dog lead and plastic ruler and I've come in at 29" on the bigger one and 28.5" on the smaller one 😕
hate to say it the beard, but measuring your thighs whilst sitting down might look a little odd as well. in the privacy of your desk space etc
bigsi, the ton, and matt h .....are quadzillas of STW so far...
Is anyone going to break the 30" mark?
You are bigger when erect?
could you doubt it ?
Anyway, it's not a competition, I'm content with my thighs as they are 🙂
barnses leg are like little kids legs, almost hobbit like, same as his feet..
whereas [b]ton[/b] models after an orc... [apologies to orcs for personal slur]

disappearing off to the bathroom with a tape however...
A lot less than when I'd done a season of ski guiding. I can find trousers to fit now!
28.5" here. Find it impossible to find trousers that fit my thighs AND my waist - usually end up with a massive belt or just comfort fit jeans. 21" a couple of inches above the knee
or just [b]comfort[/b] fit jeans
a wonderful euphemism for 'tent-shaped' 🙂
Indeed SFB - they do tend to be cut like a spinnaker 🙂
See i have no problems getting trousers to fit because I'm also a tall fat barsteward so its all in proportion 😉
24 1/2" - which might not seem that big to some of you hulks out there but my legs are only 29" long (yes I am a hobbit)
24" over here, I too have problems with jeans of the non-baggy variety.
I'm 5'11" with a 33" inside leg & 32" waist so I buy long, can't get bloody 32" waist ones to fit, so I buy 34" waist ones and wear a belt quite tight, it's more the very top of my leg/behind that causes the problems though 😆
sfb,........or a uruki 8)
or a uruki
oh you mean a particularly nasty type of orc as conjured up by Saruman ? I hadn't noticed your teeth were filed to a point...
A sparrow-like 24"
Tsk.
Its Uruk Hai.
If we're going to do nerd boy fantasy references, please get it right.
😉
26" for me, but the rest of me is pretty skinny.

I knew that but thought it impolite to demean [b]ton[/b]'s ignorance...
24" here, too. I'm 5'6". Stubby's the word.
barnes, i am listening 😡
20" above knee and 27" at the biggest point I've only got 29" legs as well athough I'm 6'
wife calls me stumpy
barnes, i am listening
obviously, otherwise I might have been ruder about you (were that possible 🙂
a paltry (or is that poultry...) 22" here, its a wonder I can support my own weight...... 😯
So no 30+ plussers yet then.....?
21 at the widest point. 31 long and jeans never fit- always too tight round my thighs (Im a girl) perhaps boys jeans would be better?
i reckon teetoosugars or bigpete1 could be close... 😉
