    On a sidenote to this;

    I saw a petite lady on her bike cycling to work last week. She had 3/4 lycra leggings on.

    As I cam up from behind, my prefered method of engagement, she was seated and pedalling away. However, as we came to a small incline she got out of the saddle and started to really push on. I can tell you with all honesty that there was no anti bacterial insert in her lycra leggings, they were gym leggings........just purest cameltoe, visible from behind. Yes, a full reverse cameltoe.....

    I made a dash for it.......

    I've have a similar experience, I didn't dash for it, I slowed down to double check I wasn't suffering from heatstroke and imagining things. Whilst I guess it could be classed as dangerous vbyb virtue of being distracting to other cyclists, I think its commendable behaviour and to be encouraged.

    It was mesmorising at the time, but I felt that I should be gentlemanly and maintain my SCR foothold - utilising all the power of the seat of my pants, I made a run for it and did not make eye contact as I passed. After all, I had seen more of the girl than most and needed to keep that gem with me as I cycled bravely onwards, then tell all of you on here.

    It was not very ladylike, I would rather have seen some boobage than a sweaty crotch.

    Maybe they just wanted an excuse to take down her particulars :wink:
    None of the above should be taken seriously, and certainly not personally.

    Girls always look more attractive on bikes than they would without the bike. FACT.

    It's exactly the same effect as having them stand next to fast 'good looking' cars.

    No one knows why.

    Apparently straight men think pretty women should be allowed to steal bikes, and will even HELP THEM!

    I have to say that, as a general rule, I greatly prefer your women. Both are well made, beautifully finished, comfortable, and will provide many years of satisfactory service, but the bikes are a bit heavy and cumbersome for my tatse.....

    You send us some pretty good cheese, too.

    The 'dash' he made is still in his bibs.
