    Cool LRRH - costumes?

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    I know it's a little early for this ... but if we're talking lodging, we have to already be brainstorming what to wear, right?

    Is anybody shooting for a costume? THere IS a contest... there's a pic from 2004 on the Web site of two ladies sporting fairy wings. Those are nice, but maybe not so aerodynamically friendly? (This from a woman who has biked long distances bearing a large foam cross on her back or a lampshade on her head.)

    Anyhoo. Just starting the thought process.

    Well...I had wanted to dress up, but everyone around me is like, "The HORROR!"
    So I guess to only dressing up I'm doing will be my TE tatoo (and jersey & shorts, of course).

    I love the fact that everyone is doing so much early planning about this. I like it when things are thought through well in advance.

    I kinda like costumes too, but not for riding. Can anyone think of something simple we could do/wear before the ride? You know for the photo-opt angle? BikerHen

    I have "issues" with calling attention to my physical self, therefore I am not a wearer of costumes, exposer of midriff, or anything that might cause someone I don't know to look at me for more than a few seconds. Most of my wardrobe is black with a few earth-tone colored pieces thrown in.

    And since I plan on wearing my Amici Veloci jersey at LRRH, I'll "blend in", right?

    I am up for a pre-race dressup, but it would depend on the costume. . . I thought of wearing a red riding hood costume, but I am afraid the cape would get caught in the bike. I can forgo shaving my legs and be the wolf (I can't believe I just said that)
