I’m gonna keep pushing for the Peter Millar or johnnie-O gear, need to dress us dorks. I was gonna say that I prefer to be called something different, but just in differentiating that fact is what makes me a dork TheChosenOne likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha yea, I’ve been avoiding confirming my suspicions for awhile. Lost my go-to years ago and was super lazy replacing it. Big mistake. Always disappointed when I search for something new. Can’t even buy a SLU baseball hat huh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cgeldmacher Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Question for cyclists out there: When someone plays basketball for exercise, they just wear shorts, t-shirt, and sneakers. When someone swims for exercise, they just wear swim trunks, not speedos. When someone plays soccer for exercise, they wear shorts and a t-shirt. Yet, when someone decides to get into cycling for exercise, suddenly its Halloween and they are going to the party dressed as Floyd Landis. Why????? Please don't give me the streamline/wind resistance argument. If you really were doing it to get a good workout you would want wind resistance, not the opposite.

Please don't give me the streamline/wind resistance argument. If you really were doing it to get a good workout you would want wind resistance, not the opposite. Because wind is your worst enemy out there. I'd take rain, light snow (if it isn't sticking yet), heat, or any number of other elements over wind. I've ridden in low-single-digits all the way to low triple digits. You don't realize how serious wind can be until you have a strong headwind. You want every advantage against it possible, even if you're riding short distances. Saying you want wind resistance for a better workout is weird. I've never heard anyone say that before. If it were true, top cyclists would train like that. They don't. Your body already provides more than enough resistance in a headwind. If you had on loose clothes, there are winds that could stop your momentum completely. Also, loose stuff can get caught in your bike.

cgeldmacher Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Got it. Good explanation. Still think that cyclists go a little over the top with the gear, but I understand it a little better now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like you could have asked this question without being snarky. When you play soccer you tend to wear soccer shorts and a soccer shirt, when you play basketball you wear basketball shorts and a basketball tank top. If you wear plane shorts you're going to have a numb penis(probably have that anyway with bike shorts), then a sore pair of testicles. If you wear a regular shirt with bike shorts you looks fuoking weirder than in a full cycling kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wear bright T-shirt or tank top if hot, a bright hoodie if cold. None of that fancy bike crap clothing for me. willie likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NextYearBill Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 In addition to the vintage design deals…and in a similar vein… I have been told that SLU Athletics will introduce authentic basketball jerseys for purchase this fall. The jerseys will come in two colors, white and blue, and will be essentially identical to the uniforms that the Men’s basketball team will wear when they take the court for the 2021-22 season. LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! WE DID IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Reinert310, GoSluBills, dennis_w and 2 others like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My avatar is just the letter R, but if you drew a head on top of an uppercase “R” and added long curly(ish) hair and a beard...yeah, that’d be pretty accurate.
