The other thread spurred this serious question:
When guys are riding behind you do you think that they're looking at your butt?
I ask for the obvious, but also because I'm now so self concious that this is what I think you think I'm doing (and I don't always) I find myself having to immediately overtake if you're female.
Of course this makes for great pains.
There are occasions like when a lady cyclist was cruising along at my speed and I really didn't see the point of overtaking simply to be ahead of her riding at her speed. Of course she noticed me behind her (I'm minding my own business) and immediately started slowing down so I had no choice to overtake. To be honest if this was because she thought I was checking her out I find this insulting. I'm happily taken.
Also why don't girls accept a draft?

A true scalp is not only overtaking someone but leaving them stopped at a set of lights. As you, who have clearly beaten the lights, pummels nothing but the open air ahead. ~ 'DondaddyD'. Player of the Unspoken Game

Why restrict this to girls?
I know that people behind me are checking out my butt.Mud - Genesis Vapour CCX

No, because I'm usually at the back.0

I think they do because I had a girl deliberately wiggle her bum at me. The reason I say this is because we were both cruising along on the flat and for no reason she got out of the saddle and stomped on the pedals a few times.
I wish more girls would do this0 -
There is never anyone behind me unless there is a large group of cyclists at the lights. That might last about 5 seconds once the lights turn green :roll: :oops:0

To the guy in the massively stretched and patchy lycra going through Trafalgar Square last night... Practically the whole world could see your horrendous scabby ar*se... Two of us actually sat there and had a conversation about it whilst he was parked infront at the lights. Don't think he noticed
As for checking the girls out... I think it'd be rare to find a man who didn't tbh. But then I doubt the girls are that restrained at checking our hineys either.
Whether they'd wish to is another matter entirely (see above).FCN 4 - BMC CX020 -
I'm sure riding through Brizzle I've had hotties checking out me in my lycra (or perhaps it's all in my head).2012 Cannondale Synapse0

Maybe she'd read one of your BikeRadar threads? :twisted:0 -
Did get a lovely smile off a girl yesterday though when I gave way to her.....unfortunately, I was in the car....0

There is one car on my commute which seems to sit behind me for an alarming amount of time every day, I ride in on a mostly empty 10 mile stretch of national speed limit road along the coast with ample oppurtunity to pass. They can only be 'checking me out' or maybe its in my head?0

I hope so, it is top quality fare
Wouldn't say I check out guys butts, but I do give an approving glance at thighs and upper arms where deserved.

So would you want men to check your butt out in a noticable way?

Half your luck. You can spot mine from the next county. They'd have to start an overtake at around the braking distance for an HGV at 70mph. In the wet.0 -

As loosely as I use the term 'working from home', I think posting a pic of my own arse on the internet probably doesn't qualify

I am afraid that your statements are largely irrelevent without evidence.......of the photographic nature.
*Note to admins; I may have just breached all forum rules by asking another forum member to bear arse to prove the statement. I am sure that on provision of evidence you can then decide whether or not to ban me....depending of the quality of the ar$e, of course.
