wait, winter biking miniskirts, what?

mini skirts stay out of the way while pedaling, and don’t snag on any parts of your bike. Longer skirts, eh, not so much.

even in winter.

silly man.:p

Yes, that is exactly what happens when you (or, at least, I) wear a long-ish skirt on a bike.:o

Too funny I wear a skort alot and this happens a lot of times. Luckily it is only my bike shorts showing but I am not ready to give up the skort. Better than letting it all hang out.

This line of reasoning is unlikely to convince me to switch from winter bike pants to a mini kilt.

I expect to see the DC area streets and trails soon filled with new Stragglers. Depending on the price, it’s pretty much a dream commuter setup.

I quite like the return of the Instigator myself. Looks like a fairly capable fatbike/26+er.

Right now I don’t have a covet, I keep thinking I want a SSCX but haven’t actually found anything must have.

I know this is the absolute worst reason to want a bike, but those Van Dessels just look so freaking COOL. That’s definitely going to be my next ride.

I thought that was the only reason.

I’m even worse — the name’s the first thing that jumped out at me when I first saw one.

Hopefully disc mania will ensue and great deals on Cross Checks will be everywhere.
