 i had an argument with my mountain bike mate today while out on our road bikes,i noticed him rolling up his shorts and asked what he was doing,he said that he didnt want those stupid looking tan lines but i told him that it showed you were serious so are they cool or not?

Not on the beach they're not - you just look a prat! - but they are a necessary evil in our sport

 A couple of years ago I got roasted on a South Downs Way 2 day expedition in early may. When the sunburn finally died down I had a wicked cyclists arm and leg tan which I then made sure I had enough suncream on for the rest of the summer...
Then stripping off to swim in a pool at the French Riveira in September I realised that all the dusky Spanish and French holiday makers were haveing a good chuckle at my expense. Super dark brown half arms and legs and super pasty body.
If Id have had sandals, grey socks and a hankerchief on my head it would have completed the look.
Rather than trying to get a tan by rolling my shorts up Im going to make sure I have the super strength sun cream and try to stay a healthy pale colour all over.

Yeah when I were a lad I loved to get all the sun, those tan creams were a load of bollocks, still I don't really mind the tumors, still one or two dozen they can't operate on, never mind, I looked cool though
W@nker!

I have spent 40 years experimenting
Its nothing to do with the amount of bike riding unless you are suggesting I shouldnt wash? perhaps you dont I prefer to. Poser definitely not
Poseur? possibly

I say "pocket rocket"
What is exactly meant by "Riding your bike hard?" do you mean fast and for a long time? or do you mean with a mean expression snarling at little kiddies to get out of the way?
or do you mean handling it vewy wuffly?
Tsk tsk
I must try to keep up with popular culture and the youth of today.

Managed for the second year to get Anaxagore (or however you spell it) head. Looks like you've got red horns which draws even more attention to the lack of a traditional luxuriant hair covering up there.

Another good one is when you get panda eyes from wearing your glasses all day long.

 i like the tan u get from wearing gloves on a bike. u end up looking like u have cotton gloves on from a distance
|
|
 Yeah, i had great glove marks a few years back, where i had slight lines across my fingers (short finger gloves) and a huge brown oval on the back of each hand from the gap by the velcro closures! People kept thinking they were birthmarks!! (yeah right, symetrical birthmarks!! lol
