*just sitting here laughing my head off at the image this fine looking gentleman in his late 60's strutting his stuff in spandex at the LBS*
I dunno - I love cycling, I love cycling apparel and I do so love the sight of a tight bodied fit male athlete but I have yet to find ANY man sexy in cycling apparel.
Yes.. even Lance. Sorry but geeeeze.. spandex shorts just don't do it for me.

How funny! A well-endowed man in lycra makes me want to look the other way. I bet the woman at the bike shop wants him to wear baggies! I call the bike shop quite a bit, too, and there are 2 attractive young men there. I'm sure they want to have an affair with me (I'm 58) because I wear lycra--hah!

I must say I love my dear sweetie's thighs in lycra. Actually the first time I saw him he was coming back from a bike ride - club kit, shades, helmet and all - and thought "wow! Very muscular young man!"
However when men stand on the podium after a bike race, I find it disturbing to be forced to see how "happy" they are to have won. Not a nice sight, indeed.
This being said, if poor Aunt Jean knew that everyone was talking about her and her husband's "endowment" on a bike forum she'd be shocked!!!

I also believe a well built guy (or gal for that matter) looks great in spandex.
and I do notice, and I do look sometimes...

I was around too many swimmers in wet spandex. Does nothing for me and neither do the bike shorts.
That said --
You know, Aunt Jean might be right about her husband. In HIS mind he may have a thing for the woman at the bike shop and in HIS mind he may be strutting his stuff to show off, if he's so well-endowed he thinks he's gonna wow her.
Poor Aunt Jean.
Either way.
ETA: How many calls does somebody really make to the LBS? So many that it looks suspicious? Maybe, but my calls to the LBS aren't that frequent.
Of course, I can ask my questios here!
“Hey, clearly failure doesn’t deter me!”

OK, I'm totally cracking up here!
You girls are just too durn funny! I'm SHOCKED, I tell you!
SHOCKED!
I remember the first time I saw my DH in spandex shorts and gloves and helmet...I thought I would just DIE he looked so good!
I LOVE the way most people look in cycle clothes- even average type people look great to me.
Poor Aunt Jean would feel the same way if her husband went to the library too often- she'd think he and the librarian were gittin' it ON!Lisa
