Most common comment to me is "nice socks" when I'm tooling by in my sneakers, toe clips and novelty socks (I like to wear the ones with the dancing turtles for events).

Did a century with three first-timers this Saturday. We had 25 mph winds and a little bit of hail - but everybody finished and was still walking :-) :-) When the sag wagon came by, we just laughed and waved 'em on. (THere was some real eye candy there, too - pegged him as cute in his car as we pulled up, but then I saw him at the rest stop and he has a smile that comes from oh, the inner core of his spirit or something. Just nice to dodge the wind for awhile wtih him - and a toe clip fellow, too!)
