Should I stop wearing lycra?

I don't know about the other gentleman you posted but if you know anything about this one he deserves a shoot load of respect, I assume that was your aim when you posted his picture and that you weren't trying to mock him?

I will leave you happy in your assumption.

Lol. Thank-you, google image search.

Wear what you like a sod what people think

Exactly, sir! I think fully liveried team kit is a bit daft, but ultimately it ain't up to me what they wear. After all, I often walk around town in a sequined ball gown and high heels.

Of course alienating your potential customers is always a wise move. Don't buy a Hoy if you're a MAMIL.

I sometimes walk around "in the buff", but that's another story......

To be clear, I find this "fat guy enters a sportive, let's all humiliate him on the internet" to be a horrible trend. Thank you for bucking it.

(When we've stopped the humiliation of fat men in sports kit, can we turn our attention to fat women, who are vilified no matter how they dress?)

They are not "inappropriate shoes", just shoes that you don't like. Luckily you don't have to wear them, so give it a rest, do.

WTAF? I have no views on whether I like or dislike the unnamed shoes, so you're jumping to conclusions to say that I don't like them. I think this isn't the first time you've misattributed views to me and tried to bully me out of a clothing discussion - you seem to have some worrying fixation.

All I know about them is that Accy reports being cold and wet in them, which suggests to me that they're inappropriate or unsuitable for the conditions or activity.

Now that i've had my hernia operated on,i'm thinking of buying some pink or white cycling shorts. What do you reckon?

Aren't Hoy bikes for children? At least that's all I've seen in shops (Evans only, I think). I guess you could avoid buying your young relatives his stuff.

Not once he puts the overshoes on. Layering an excellent strategy for clothing.

Yeah, but if you're still using three layers even in a warm bit of August, I'd still suggest switching one out for a warmer/dryer layer.

My cycling shoes have mesh bits in them,which does help on warm days,but they're crap in the wet. I always carry a pair of overshoes,if i'm on my saddle bag bike.
Every year i think about getting some water proof boots,but every year someone tells me such a thing doesn't exist.

Yes new last year I now own two one short sleeve and one long sleeve.
And yes it is Morecambe the Lakeland fells over the water rather give it away.
