[Closed] YELLOW RON HILLS

mustard yellow or hi-viz yellow?

was he about 6'2, dark haired, insitution escapee, welsh?

Yellow Ron Hills. Dear God! Surely you've a justifiable homicide right there

For some reason, picturing them made me think of the Mitchell and Webb 'Programmes they wouldn't let us make' list....

Peado's in Speedo's

IMO white are worse. There's an old boy in our running club that has a pair.

The first thing i thought when i read this thread title was

"Where can i get a pair!?"

So wrong. Guilty.

There's a scrawny bloke at the local Park Run who turns up in what appears to be a full Skins bodysuit. You can tell which side he dresses on. yuck.

Ron Hills were only ever acceptable on "Bullet Baxter" in Grange Hill. The bloke is a legend in TV PE Teachers in my humble opinion.

Tubbs - How about Brian Glover in Kes? He's fall into that category too, I reckon

Oh dear... 😳

I used to have two pairs of Troll(?) lycra climbing pants

- Flouro yellow with flouro green / orange stripes
- Black with pink / orange / green (?) harlequin type check

😳

But, no, I didn't wear them to the shops...

I wore a pair of black ones for a walking holiday a couple of weeks ago.

They now have a slightly baggy fit so you can't see any budgies.

rkk01..

i have the same Harlequin Troll climbing pants... and ashamed to say i wore them recently, albeit for a 'charity' run! 😳

Troll tights you say? Standard issue back in the day.

I have nightmares about following my mate Geoff who used to wear purple wrong hills, with a selection of holes in at the wrong place...it was serious motivation to get ahead and stay ahead...

Still have a pair of Nave Blue ones in one of me cupboards in a box..
Faded mind, red stripe all akimbo now no doubt.

"Ahh, those were the days"

there's a chap who 'shares' part of my commute, he's often wearing hi-viz yellow tights.

you can't miss him...

Top of Snowdon, steel frame, rigid, steel rims, brake blocks with strips of leather in to aid wet weather performance. No helmet, and cheese sandwiches and Vimto for 'nutrition and hydration'.

Tell that to the young people today in their baggy clown suits and 6 inches of travel.

navy ones perfectly acceptable IMO. Think mine might have given up the ghost, but grand for camping weekends and knocking about / old skool biking trips (see mcmoonter, above).

All Rons are unacceptable, it's the baggyness.

Tights should be tight

al keep your fantasies to yourself

i loved mine but they sagged so much I cannot get behind the saddle with them on 😳

They are tight on me.... 😳

At least they're black, though. I used to have a shocking green pair, thankfully restricted to late 1980s climbing.
