Very mix match bike clothes.
To many cyclists around here, riding a hybrid means you're not a real biker... could be the clipless pedals made them look closely enough to see the street tires (I have a similar arrangement and it's plenty fast, though mostly people see me on the Xtra, which is in its very own category - the fast guys will go by and say "sure could use a smoothie about now!" whether or not I've got the blender attached )
