1. Cheapo "runner's" tights from scam-bay which go over my bibs, perfect for temps 40-60.
2. Thicker thermal tights from Performance which have a thin windproof coating, which are ideal for temps 25-40.
3. If under 25, I wear the thin runner's tights UNDER the thermal tights. That has me covered down to 10F which is as cold as it ever gets around here.

I don't see why not, since the site is gone. Social Cyclist actually had a huge following, especially for a new site. It was different, yet the same, if that makes sense. One banned member from here, threw that straight in the trash. When Tom was on there, he appreciated it because he could be himself, and not "admin". This certain member stated how displeased he was with BF, and how unfairly he thought he was treated, in a terrible way. He went way over the top on Tom. (I thought) Activity dropped quickly, after that.

Last April, my doc gave me 6 months to get my act together or start Metformin so my family doc wanted me to watch my sugars and starches. I also have radiation damage to my intestines and rear end, I'll spare you the details, but my gastro guy also started me on a special diet and it's been great for my gastro problems but the two diets don't always mesh well. Basically, I have a relatively sparse menu to choose from and I'm basically a vegi-turkian and even then, I have to avoid a lot of veggies and fruits.

Besides the 40#, my A1C has fallen a whole number to 5.6 since April. I see my doc tomorrow but she already called me last week to congratulate me with the results. I didn't tell her about the weight loss so maybe I'll get kudos and a lollipop tomorrow for that, too. :D

I've got some other relatively serious issues but I feel great at the moment and enjoy every day. :thumb:

Maybe someone could create a "B.F. After Dark" alternative website where we can cuss, get drunk, post pics of nekkid ladies, and say filthy stuff like "in before the lock". :rolleyes:

We already have one of those but the very people who like to cuss are too appalled to use it. :lol:

To be frank, though, it's not like Addiction posts are coming in fast and furious and threatening to break the forum with their bulk. We could prolly keep this one alive for another quarter without things getting wonky.
