Cyclists "outfits"

[paolo]

Last night was a mixed bag of delights.

We did, of course, score some Golds. The women's kierin (sp?) was fantastic. A quick race but not too quick. And we won. And all hail the men too.

Just, ahem then, a brief word about the men's, erm, 'gear':

Team GB looked sharp and purposeful. Smart navy leggings and fighter pilot visors. Epitome of cool.

But... But... Please let me never ever see an outfit like Australia's. I mean, just don't.

Is it me or is it their (just cycling?) outfit has a detail line in the shape of a massive scrotum?

There's things the olympics doesn't need: Traffic, legacy issues, and meat and two veg.

God forbid that people have genitals, I mean it's outrageous.

I wonder what time it is in Poland? Let me just check my cyclist international clock.

If you think that's bad, my coffee table has four phallic objects strutting from the top to the ground. I had to fashion a table-sized cloth covering to protect the innocence of any passing women.

From where I'm sitting - in my executive starter home (detached) in Tunbridge Wells - I'm equally outraged.

When's the volleyball?

Would have been too easy for a Freudian slip there. I salute your self-control.

Ever started a thread and get an entiterly unwanted result?

I must be a nine year old lad in my head, because I laughed my bloody socks off at that photo.

These?

Wonder what it's actually supposed to represent? seems just to be the cycling.

I blame my horror on BBC camerawork.

There's close ups we don't need to see.

It really is about time someone invented some new bottom halves for all these male athletes

They should probably blur those bits out, also breasts and stuff, they should be pixilated lest we become nauseous.

No no no!

Everyone naked ftw.

It's all about presentation sir

Seems an opportune moment to post this!

I was beside myself guffawing like a 12 yr old this afternoon following the rowing... Really leaves very little to the imagination some of those outfits!

It's a lot to do with the colour though. The red ones do seem to be the worst but one of the chinese(I think) weightlifters had a very nice arse in his

It's a miracle us chaps can actually fit (it all) onto a bicycle saddle - without wearing Lycra it's always a bit of a performance getting comfortable when you climb on ...
