    Kind of beautiful how a skilled journalist can spin a story. Just because he rides less than Karen Smith, doesn’t mean we should laugh at his helmet straps and gloves. Some pro riders have their helmets straps adjusted wrong, and we all go through a pink glove phase. My favorite cycling gloves ever, my first pair (I think), were pink crocheted cotton with black leather palms. Sigh, a rosebud sort of memory for me. :)

    Oh, I’m not laughing at him at all. I can only hope to be that fit at my age never mind his. I was just alarmed at how loose the straps are; I don’t like to see any cyclist get hurt regardless of ability. Regarding the gloves, they struck me as odd since I only see fabric on one side of the hand which is why I thought they were unusual.

    Yeah, I think they’re just faded pink gloves that look kinda like skin.
