ParticipantI think you may not have counted on Team Exile here…
May actually go swimming during the ride. If it’s 80something, may as well.

ParticipantI was sort of bummed when I learned Subby was not playing this year. But now with the announcement of this pointless prize, all I can think is, “Thank god!”

Rumor is Subby isn’t playing because Twin Six doesn’t make a bathing suit.

ParticipantToday would’ve been a great day to ride in a swim suit. At least it’s something that’s designed to get wet……

ParticipantDoes the bathing suit have to be from this century or is there some minimum midriff requirement?

Looking at the pic of the swimsuit from the Roaring 20s above, that’d easily pass for the skinsuits that cyclocross racers use nowadays.

They do make full body swimsuits in the 21st century that are not wet suits. Or maybe a Burqini as long as you are not in France?

ParticipantHmm. If you wore that, um, stylish swimsuit to the pool last summer, then go for it. Otherwise, best stick with your regular swim gear.
Admittedly, a 21st century swimsuit ride puts you “on the spot,” but if I could do it, so can you! I’m not saying it’s easy… Last night’s bikini-ride got the attention of neighbors and passing cars, and my girls were mortified – especially the 11-year-old. Sixth grade is all about fitting in and slipping under-the-radar. It’s weird enough having a biker-mom… and now this?!

ParticipantWhat about the dry-suit that Arlingtonrider is trying to unload?
That might have come in handy this morning.

ParticipantThe keys to a good Warming Climate ride are to choose (a) the right day, and (b) a short block.

Whoops! Now it does. And probably best if that was left unseen.
