Aero Socks

[Ming the Merciless]

I'm just so sorry that the planet burned to a frazzle because I used AI for terrible humour.

Plus not to forget the aero bars

Most cyclists are wearing some sort of socks ? *Even in my loosely keen Group: (I’m not sure anyone’s ever turned up with no socks on) 🤷‍♂️

I'm half way there to not wearing any socks at all!! I wear ankle socks, you can't see the sock at all when I have my cycling shoes on. And they are extremely comfortable.

I'm guessing this isn't the norm at all because I've never, in all the time I've been cycling, seen another cyclist where the socks aren't visible.

Everyone seems to wear quite high socks and some even pull them right up so they are just below the knee in some cases.

I'll be honest, imo this behaviour should be against the law, it looks ridiculous. But then again maybe other cyclists think I look ridiculous with no socks on show at all.

I love me some ‘no show’ socks too. Been doing it most of the Summer.

It’s all about the tan lines !

Unfortunately, you’ve broken the sacred Rule 27

Great what other rules should we ignore?

No socks used to be the thing for timetrialists back in the day when everyone rode on steel road bikes.

I’ve probably ignored most of “the rules”. Except for sock length. That would be uncivilised

Those Darevie are two for the price of one. I got some recently and am really pleased with them.
