Nick, only YOU would find a comic like that.

Barney, if your question about bicycling clothes is serious, everything is tight to reduce wind drag and the shorts have padding because the saddle is kind of like sitting on a brick. Exercise is fine but I'm not into the racing/masochism culture and clothing. It's a shame bikes aren't designed for beautiful girls in thong bikinis, each eager to cater to your every whim. -- Russ

I've already built my bike. It's a track racing bike. No gears, no freewheel for coasting and, under ideal circumstances, no brake. But because I'm an old geezer, I added a brake for emergencies. Put THAT in yer pipe 'n' smoke it! -- ssuR
