How do I look from behind?

This thread is just too funny! I love everyone's input!


Yeah I wouldn't mind looking a bit more buff, but DH assures me that he loves the view from behind me no matter who it looks to anyone else, so I really don't care what others might see or think. If DH loves my rear view, that's good enough for me!

I noticed something weird though the other day-
When we were taking photos of each other riding our bikes, the first batch was taken with DH's digital camera. I was horrified- I looked so much heavier and blobby that I 'thought' i looked! The photos were not so great anyway, so I jokingly said the next day we would take the pictures all over again but this time we'd use MY digital camera, which would naturally favor how I looked.
Well we did just that, wore the same clothes, same sunny lighting, same distance, etc....and you know, I looked WAY better in the pix taken by my pink camera! I looked less heavy, more curvy and more muscle-y. It was weird! Needless to say, we used THOSE pictures.

LOL Must have been a wider angle lens if you hold the camera vertical can make people look skinnier

Funny thread...I've had those 'ooh, my eyes!!' moments myself - and it was an old guy's bony behind - I don't think I would have minded half so much if it was one of those younger, tight, male roadie behinds!

My bf also seems to enjoy the view- in my mind, I'm pulling and setting a good pace, only to find out, he's back there with a happy smile on his face! (I DO have a mirror, you know!)

My BF has threadbare shorts that allow me to see his birthmark when he bends over.

Are you so sure that's his birthmark??

Same here! In my helmet mirror!
