Really lycra is pretty comfortable, also it gets the girls pointing (and laughing...)

Do you have a lycra kilt?
See Bert, I didn't call it a skirt.

I wouldn't know about the first point, and have no inclination to find out. And I'm used to girls laughing quite without displaying myself in lycra

I strongly suspect you have to be of the masochistic type to wear lycra. Which coincides well with the people wearing it also seem to enjoy torturing theselves physically. Look at Mark if you need an example. Just remember that what has been seen cannot be un-seen.

When I first saw that I thought it would be a deal-breaker for many, but after all you can just black it out with a sharpie if you really don't want to see it
sometimes those "supporters" do more harm than good to the company. There should be nothing wrong with putting on the mirror box

Ooh... bold move stating that information. This thread of bacon-gulping, lycra-clad, old fools are not going to sympathize with you..

I can't even imagine what those two songs sound like on bagpipes.
Some of us don't want to even go there.

For the record. I am somewhat old, love bacon, pizza, beer, lingonberries, salmiakki, Fazer sininen chocolate, pickled herrings, liver casserole, blood pancakes and so on.
Spandex cycling shorts are a must, anything else can/will get you hurt. Not sure about Lycra thou...
Still on the fence about them bagpipes playing Christmas music.

Now there area bunch of us old windbags here who could wear Lycra ( Our humanitarian leaning prevent us form trying it. Think of the children!) I wonder if bagpipes could be made from Lycra? Has anyone ever seen a squirrel wearing Lycra?

Bacon, pizza and beer are three of the major food groups. I don't think I've ever had salmiakki nor Fazer sininen chocolate, but pickled herrings are a favourite. My wife opens the windows when I open a jar, but that's OK

Finnish liver casserole doesn't look very inviting, but the blood pancakes took interesting. I'm used to black pudding. Do you serve it with lingonberry jam? I suppose that's not all that different to serving roast turkey with cranberry jelly.

What are your thoughts on elastane cycling shorts?

Blood pancakes and lingonberry go hand in hand taking the flavor experience to the next level. Same thing with liver casserole and lingonberries btw.
As far as elastine, sounds better than lycra but not as good as spandex

Lingonberries are very tart "out of the gate" They get sugar added depending on intended use.
