I love the picture of you cyclists trying to be anonymous and under-noticed in your colorful spandex rigs and reverse-high-heels in a coffee shop! Really. Nobody should have the NERVE to say anything to you guys at all, much less call you Buddy. We should try to pretend you’re not even there actually. xo

“what’s your deal?” and “Buddy”? i thought roadies aren’t allowed to communicate on the road unless its a slight nod of the head or the raising of a couple fingers off the bars in acknowledgement? to me, this whole exchange conjured up this scene:

Peter Gibbons: Let me ask you something. When you come in on Monday, and you’re not feelin’ real well, does anyone ever say to you, “Sounds like someone has a case of the Mondays”?
Lawrence: No. No, man. Shit, no, man. I believe you’d get your ass kicked sayin’ something like that, man.

Yes, American Apparel WOMEN’S specific sized shirts.

Give me some credit here. We’re not lame enough to actually just have it be like a men’s L and call it a women’s M. Or a men’s M and call it a women’s S, etc.
