Call me MAC
I'm Fat (but getting less so) And Bald (have been for years and would happily get rid of the rest if the missus would let me). I'm also a Middlle Aged Man and now I'm fully commited to being In Lycra (now can't stand anything loose flapping about).

So there you go. I'm out and I'm proud. Has it happened to you yet?

Tried lycra, then tried again with same result.

Skin went red, then the itching, then sections of skin developed little pimple heads, then the puss came. Normality back just over a week later.

Lycra gloves seem to be OK, but anywhere else - no thanks.

I've been committed for a long time now, but on all but the warmest of days I'll still be found wearing a really, really lightweight Altura jacket as my body in lycra is not fit for human consumption xx(

I love my lycra and just to prove it.

The chicks dig seeing my muscular form in Lycra. About the only thing I am good at.
 
I committed the cardinal sin of having hairy legs in lycra today, it didn't look good and they resemble, at present, the look of pig's hair given that they are in the process of growing back after the summer posery (if you can call it that).

My excuse? I only have one pair of bib tights and they were in the wash so what was I supposed to do with a few hours free, in-laws with the kids, work basically telling me there isn't none for the 'affy..? I could have gone on the turbo I suppose...?

Still, not many people saw me given the 40mph winds on top of the Mendips.

As long as you stay on the bike and I don't find you walking in front of me at the supermarket while you're in Lycra, all is well, we live in a free country after all ^_^
