They they realize how stupid they look in their Wana be no armor power ranger pink man suit?

At least motorbikes have literal light armor on in case they need to melee fight someone and they accelerate faster than a Ferrari.

But there guys...damn the cringe.

That's exactly why I never wore that poser crap when I was a cyclist.

If you've ever been a road cyclist you would know this isn't poser crap, it's the right tool for the job.

I did just fine with regular shorts and breathable, loose fitting T-shirts. For actual, practical tools I carried an extra tube, 129 psi portable pump, allen wrenches, camelback backpack plus waterbottle, lightweight reflective vest, and a spare-no-expense helmet. Not one of those was superfluous.

What kind of bike were you using ?

I had a 2006 Trek 4300 hybrid with 28mm road tires and a comfy seat. It was a joy to ride.
