New lycra top today.

Proudly put it on to show the missus.

"How do I look?" say I.

"About as stupid as all of those other lycra clad weirdos on bikes" says she.

I took that as a compliment.

    Don't make the mistake of buying shorts in any other colour than black then, as given the above reaction she is likely to either file for divorce or suffer a stroke.

    :D

    She can't be referring to me, I look sh*t hot in my lycra.

    I deliberately decided to use the word "suffer" rather than "have" for the very reason that I thought someone might allude to the fact there might be a marital benefit to the husband modelling his bib shorts ....

    First time I tried on my skin suit my wife said I look like a Tellytubby! Or in my case a telly-very-tubby.

    I make a point of wandering round the house just in my bib shorts, gets the "usual" response.

    Poor girl really doesn't understand.

    What, like if previously she was wanting it more than he was, beforehand?
