tourist-moron-tourist-moron... Touron. A descriptive the locals use.
Anyway, I was just returning from a therapy ride and had to stop at the top of a freeway overpass for traffic. I am on the shoulder/ bike lane/ breakdown lane, whatever it is, look over and there's three guys on touring bikes in the traffic lane.
As I stare slack-jawed at the high speed, low drag, head to toe, color coordinated spandex awsomeness, they stare slack jawed at the bib coverall wearin, throttle workin subject that is myself. Well the next quarter mile was me smiling at them, them frowning at me, and them looking at my back until I was just a memory.
I just know I could afford a kit and a bike, for what each one of them spent on those get-ups.
