Oh sorry PunkyP, terribly sexist of me I assumed you where of the chap persuasion. I will be attending my Gender Awerness Recognition Training course ASAP

Lol, had to read that twice, thought you had put "of the cheap persuasion" and was just about to suggest another training course!

It's quite annoying about the small sizes in cycling. I'm 5 ft zilch and about a ten in normal shops (about an 18 in top shop) but I'm easily a medium and even a large in the bike shop. It's most embarrassing.

Possum, how's the training going for Amsterdame? Was thinking about you setting off from York t'other week...when is the kick off? Thought I might come over and wave!! Not that you know what I look like.

I could wave my crutches at you though???

I cannot get the right size in Halfords clothing, I bought small shorts origonally and finally gave up when the large was too small and stopped the circulation to my legs , I now stick to altura (size 10 fits fine!).
Decathlon sizes seem to vary too, the ladies are a snug fit, but when I bought Him Who Has To Obey some leggins in his size, the crutch seemed to be somewhere around his knees unless he had the waistband under his armpits, a very sexy look

Hehe....feel free to apply, a few thousand pounds sponsorship might just get you the job!

After a bit of trial and error it appears I am a medium bordering on small - very pleased with myself

Do all your shopping in the States. The sizes over there are about 2 smaller than here i.e. a UK 14 is a US 10. That's where the size 0 phenomenon comes from which is a UK 4 in reality. A UK 0 must be a skellington?!

I had to buy an XL jersey the other day in the LBS to go around my gut!

 

[punkypossum]

Well, the stuff is designed in the US but made in Italy - I have decided the two should cancel each other out, so therefore it is accurate!

What dress size would you say the medium is?

About a 12 in the shorts - the jersey is a man's as I'm 6ft tall, the ladies tend to be too short...

That's habdy to know thanks. I won't have the same problem with Jersey's at 5'3"

 

[punkypossum]

The shorts are ace, so comfy and look and feel really good!!!!
