Queer road bikes vs wanting to look normal

No.1227943 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
How do you guys deal with how queer using a road bike looks?

>Your ass is constantly forced up into the air
>Wearing lycra like some superhero wannabe
>Feet are literally joined with the pedals in a totally not sexual, fetish like fusion of human and bicycle
>Helmet is swept back and makes you look like some kind of goblin

I just can't do it. I can't use a bike with a seat higher than the handle bars, or drop bars. I will always stick to using a MTB or a hybrid to get around. I always wear a normal t-shirt and some baggy shorts over my padded biking shorts. My helmet is usually a black skateboard bowl helmet unless it's super hot outside. I know it's slower, but I don't care. I just don't want to look like a weirdo cyclist nutjob who worships cycling like it's a religion. I just want to look normal and not have people laugh at me.
