just been out to pick something up for work an on our industrial estate there was a guy wobbling all over the road, fully "lycra clad" on a Giant road bike (looked carbon), with carbon wheels and aero bars :shock: .

i thought aero bars were dangerous enough for even seasoned riders.

"all the gear but no idea" sprung to mind as he wobbled in front of my car

do you get loads of these types of riders daaarn sarf?

the bike by the way was orange and white, the seat stays were really low compared to the seat post, looked an odd frame

    dammit that was too easy, i will have to find a more differcult conundrum for you all to solve

    or perhaps....he bought the bike as he thought it looked a bit snazzy?

    it was a very nice looking bike though
