I have a chaperone on my coffee shop rides, to call out the potholes etc for me. I just focus on looking good - I have to have as many people as possible notice my oakley radars, capo kit and lightweights

FYI I ride in bunches I expect to call or signal obsticals in the road, even if we are just riding from coffee shop to coffee shop with our 404's, campy boras and the like that's just good etiquette

Why are you in my thread? We clearly don't like each other, do you think if you comment in my thread that you'll suddenly be popular?
Perhaps you'd like to bring the womens section down a little more with more posts on how certain dress sizes aren't appropriate, when if you look closer at the women in this section we have all and still do struggle with our weight and accepting which ever size we may be.
I used to be 105kgs and a size 22, would you like to say to my face when I was that size that, hey your not worth looking at?
How very considerate of you.

Where did I say you wouldnt be worth looking at? I said being size 10 ensures you get looked at. Your the one that pointed out that you ride with guys to get noticed.
The jealousy comment has turned out to be true in your case.

It's not like we'll ever braid each others hair... I'd need to get some to begin with, basically I'm asking for you to leave me be and I'll leave you be... Fair?
