When I see these bicyclists all decked out in skin tight spandex I can’t help but wonder if what it’s really about is guys out cruising for guys?

I’m with you, the only bike a guy should be on is one with an engine. And not a mo-ped.

There's a guy at my gym who wears the whole spandex outfit to ride the stationary bikes.

If you’ve ever done a hundred mile ride, you’d understand why they wear those spandex with PADS in them. That seat is like sitting on a postage stamp.

This is a week old, but still deserves a reply. As cyclist, spandex wearing one, I can say with confidence that I am not cruising for guys. Fraid you missed that mark by a mile, because I ride home to my wife of 20 years this June.

We wear spandex because it works. It’s skin tight so it pulls all the sweat to the surface where it evaporates. Clothing that is not a second skin allows the sweat to pool beneath without airflow and you get hot. It’s no more complicated than that.
