Do you find you get more 'aggro' from people, when in Lycra /FPK, than when in 'normal' clothes

[Racing roadkill]

I get more aggro from people when I'm riding in FPKW mode, than when in just shorts and a t-shirt, etc. Do you?

I'm not a team kit tosser, but lycra emphasises my physique which seems to put people off from having a pop.

Are you still wearing that daft helmet? I expect that might have more to do with it than a Sky Jersey

 

[Gravity Aided]

If I wear the Specialized Helmet and gear I got in a thrift store, then I get a lot more positive reaction, especially when on my Sirrus that someone gave me. I find it humorous that my old Fuji Touring Series IV frame, probably the same as the older style Specialized Expedition, does not get such props.

Makes no difference to me what I'm wearing .....get some disagreements with whatever I wear...I never think Oh " if had worn that " the knob head Stagecoach bus driver I had an incident with recently wouldn't have occured

 

[Vapin' Joe]

I never ride in normal clothes.

 

[shouldbeinbed]

I never ride in lycra/FKW gear and barely ever get any grief at all.

YMMV.

Not noticed any difference. Some of them are idiots no matter what I'm wearing.

I get more aggro when I'm going more slowly and less when I'm pushing on. Clothing seems to have little to do with it

Funny you say that as I haven't had any hassle since I got a bit faster . Never really thought about that before .

Get some odd looks if I go out on the bike wearing a ball gown, no agro though.

Don't you find it gets caught in the chain? I have terrible aggro with that

You need to tuck the hem in the top of your bra.

I was in Dorking last week end, I was told to look for a giant cock but I couldn't find it so went up Box Hill for an ice cream, there were lots of cyclists and it was there in the Lycra that I found it, it wasn't aggressive but it sure was intimidating.
