eep - "bikers thigh"??

[rapid cycler]

Bikers' thighs—and calves—are sexy as heck on both men and women! And, ladies, this is where we have an advantage over men: Women aren't expected to have matching definition up top. The pros are lovely to look at from the waist down, but the spaghetti arms can be a little freakish, don't you think?

Ha ha, I've been fighting an urge to post the same thing.

I got a bit flabby in the past year so when I started cycling the new muscles hid under the flab at first, I went up two sizes in pants when I first started riding a lot but now my legs are firm and tan (albeit with funny tan lines!) and I just love looking at them in the mirror and strutting around in short shorts. What can I say? I like having nice legs!

And I agree that cycling legs are really hot on the guys as well.

I was following a group of three guys last night and though I wanted to go faster than their pace (I was late for my bike fitting!) I stayed in behind them to observe their powerful, round, um, pedal strokes for several miles.

I was so hypnotized that I almost turned and followed them up an utterly demoralizing hill. But then as I passed them ... chicken arms. I could have taken any one of them in an arm wrestling match!
