I'm the guy on the right. This is the only recent pic I have that isn't a selfie of just my head and shoulders - Bovine Classic gravel race (Atascadero, CA)


Jersey - Pactimo, Bibs - Le Col.

Regardless of whether I'm riding road, gravel, MTB, I'll be wearing bibs, a close-fitting jersey, and (probably) color-coordinated socks. That said, this jersey is probably the most relaxed fit of the ones that I most-commonly wear. Gloves will vary with ride type and temperature. Dirt rides over 2+ hours will usually get the hydro pack. I have a few jerseys of other colors, but the overwhelming majority in my closet are blue. Most of by bibs are black, but I also have grey, navy, and olive green.

EDIT: A roadie pic from a couple years ago (this has been posted before on BF).

Jersey, Vest, Bibs - Voler
Arm/knee warmers - Bontrager
Socks - Swiftwick

I would say that I fell off of the fashion train, but the truth is that I never boarded it. My objective is to be seen.

Im often wearing my long pants like this so they don’t get sucked into the gears. Get off and on the bike all the time so I often just leave it rolled up all day.

My go to is pants with one leg rolled up, shirt tied to bike, no shirt worn, helmet draped on bars.

As I eluded to in my jersey thread, I really don't buy/wear cycling specific gear. Except for gloves. I always wear gloves.

Fairly recent picture from Santa Barbara triathlon earlier this year.


Not particularly flattering pic, I know. Before the pain.

Rocking the Rapha jersey on the way to Brooklyn with some Freds. Caught mid-chew.



An older one. When I had bulging guads.

I guess I like matching the kit to the bike.

Last year: Scudo Pro jersey and skull cap, Neo Pro bib shorts, gray Husky socks


Mid 90's: team jersey by Voler

Style, what's that?

On my best days I'm "covered." On my worst days I'm pulling a short jersey down over low shorts that are wearing out in the back.

Should that go into a "good things about winter" post? Tights and jackets cover a multitude of sins.

I like your beard, weird question but did your beard turn color at the same time as your hair?

They are both fake, to make me look young. . It's the fashion these days.

edit: any smile or smirk is not fake, just a reflection of my cycling hobby.





clear your handlebars and your mind will follow.
....or in some cases, it only may follow.
