cycle performance all in one bib

after a 1.75-hour spinning sufferfest, i came home (in my bib shorts), opened up my inbox (still in my bibs) and received this great note from the awesomely one and only katie ross:

Well if Stella McCartney says this is fashionable...

it MUST BE.

I think I just laughed/vomited.

she's referencing the following product in the adidas cycling collection:

i'm comfortable in my bibs and all, but you've got to be kidding me. take a closer look in the style advisor and join us in wondering how the hell you get in and out of the damn thing.

  1. As one of my aunts once wrote, "LOL out loud!" I must say that extremely low-cut funky bib + sports bra > uggs + mini-skirt.

    Seriously, though, there has to a zipper or some other escape mechanism that would allow an attractive female cyclist with no tan lines whatsoever to gracefully free herself from her bib shorts. I'm sure there's a quick release lever somewhere in that lycra.

  2. God help you if you crash wearing that thing, though -- that'll be a lot of really unnecessary road rash.

    Speaking of hilarious bike clothing, today I got a Facebook ad for "WIBs".

    And speaking of terrible moments in spandex/quick-release levers in lycra ... here's how not to do it.

    YUP.
