While I was taking pics of my bike I thought I would give everyone who is sick of winter a little teaser and reminder of what it's like in the middle of summer. Everyone else, lets see who has the best tan lines, there should be plenty of Aussies on here that should be able to match this at the moment.

I'd like to get peoples thoughts on if you try and get rid of tan lines in summer by rolling up sleeves etc and why you do it. My belief is that if you make the commitment to shave, who cares about tan lines! To me, they are a reminder of all the hard work I put in out training.

I used to get rid of them ( I was a triathlete in a former life) but now wear them proudly on both arms and legs.

Funny story, over the xmas break I went for an extremely rare recovery swim and this girl seen my tan lines and burst out laughing! If I didn't think it was so funny, I'd be offended. My mate who I was with said it looked like I had a white suit on!

ripley451, have i missed something?
i can make similar pics in summer, because my shorts are always fine tuned to always sit at the same height on the leg, but now it looks a bit embarassing/ridiculous against the aussie's legs...

Um, I saved 1 gram when I shaved my legs! Joking, in all seriousness though, I should make it clear that I don't want this to be a show us how muscly your legs are thread, it's stricly for tan lines, no flexing to show how much of a big man you are!

I get a pair of completely new LW´s tomorrow in the post. And I mean NEW developed wheels.

I´ll be the first person to ever testride them here on Fuerteventura. Of course I can´t let you know what it´s about right now. 8)

How´d you know? :shock:
