No spandex boys this year…

Well…yeah, probably won’t do a political one today…just can’t find a topic that gives me any outrage and I need that to motivate me…so, let’s talk about fun stuff…you’ve heard me many times notice that, during the Tour de France, there are lot of newbie riders out on their new bikes with in full spandex that not one of them should be wearing…I mean, a fat 250 pounder has no business squeezing himself into what is essentially a sausage casing…and they look like bad sausage when they do it….but, out here, I noticed that there are some serious riders and they are the only ones wearing spandex…and they are thin enough to pull it off…..and there are lots and lots of riders on the trail every day if you go out in the afternoon…even saw a half dozen tandem bikes riding together today and that was a little weird…I’ve ridden them and never found them to be as fun as a single….I did see a group of about 30 riders this morning each wearing the same outfits…a day glow lime green that really hurt the eyes….I wonder if I’m going to have to go out early in the mornings on the weekend? It was crowded with no one paying attention last week so it was hard to get into a rhythm and get any speed going….I guess I’ll just have to take a deep breath and bear it….
