Pant legs

Must be because I wear boot cut jeans of something because other then a little bit of blue fuzz I noticed on the end of the cable the other day I've never caught my pants on the clutch actuator. Looking at the thing I can't figure out how you guys are.

I walk around Grand Haven with a short piece of an old cinch strap around my left leg all of the time. Once or twice I've been asked what it is but I'd like to believe no one realy notices

i didn't know there was a 2 page thread dedicated to this annoyance. seriously, at least once a day, i'm pedaling off the line and my pant leg snags that acorn nut. the force from my pedaling down-stroke tries to knock over my bike, but the opposing force of holding on to the bars counters it.

i've got to figure something out. there's no way i'm gonna ride around with a clip on my pants, or worse, my pants tucked into my sock. i might as well just go spandex if i'm gonna do that...

O_o

Spandex... er... not

Found an interesting problem when I test-pedaled my new build, for some reason unfathomable to me - my shoelace loop catches the clutch actuator lever on the Rollfast, which never once happened on my Schwinn.

I suppose the very slight difference in mounting height between the two engines is what did it... still it's annoying as **** lol and I'm not about to get velcro shoes.

Guess I'm jus' gonna hafta remember to tuck my laces in before I ride *sigh* gotta suffer fer the sport

hehehe. we could always go 80's and get some slip-on vans and pegged pants...

this thing happened to me 3 times, but now i'm using some velcro straps to keep it down...

If you wanna look goofy...........and I'm nothing if not goofy then you tuck 'ur pant leg in 'ur sock

Dunno why but this has never happened to me. I'm surprised it is to so many.

Goofy?? wata ya mean goofy?? what is it to anyone ?? I went for a ride tonite in 25below zero farh., and I wore jeans,and over that I wore sweats, and over that I wore those black track pants with the white stripe( Ricky the trailer park boy) pants if u know who that is. Any way, over that ,I had these big wolen socks pulled up around my pants on both sides. Do u think for one moment I care what anyone thinks about that??......just think about it...they are the goofs...very shallow and ignorant people if they're gonna laugh about the way my socks look. I got on a 300 dollar winter coat and u laughin??? go ahead and laugh!! Go ahead and laugh because to me u are just a meaningless idiot. Thats right.. a meaningless idiot. If I ever went around criticizing any one for what they wore or how they looked, well boy o boy that would be the day. In the summer I wear a reflective band around my pant leg. Just about evey one who rides a bicycle does that or pull up their sock on the right side .It is a very common thing.
Wear what u want to wear and how u want to wear it, and thats cool. If any one laughs at u, just remenber that they are a meaningless mindless idiot. Do not try to look or be cool , and that is what cool is, and that's natural cool.
A few years ago, I went out to learn how to play golf so I got myself a set of Wilson Clubs and at the end of my first season, I had 18 birdies on a miniature par 3 racked up. I also pared a 207 yard par 3 and birdied a 126 yard par 3. Well I'm at the range and there is all these fancy taylor made caloway and ping people around me, and there I am with my Wilsons and my wilson hat because it is white and reflects the sun heat away from my head. Well I did not care because here I am , and there I was. I they don't like it, they can just get the #$%& out of there!!!
Geuss what happened within the next couple of years. A P.G.A. pro named Padraig Harrington (hope i spelled his name right), became the 4th player in the history of golf to win more than one majior in the same season. He did it with Wilson pro staffs and He wore a Wilson hat. Well how about that. He was the only player I ever saw wearing Wilson on the P.G.A.
