Apparently cycling is now cool enough for the kids. Topman has a range of quite skinny clothing called ‘Velo’ Featuring a lot of summer styles and frenchness and stripes.

Hmm, I’m under 30, 175cm and 62kg – so one might conceivably call me young and skinny. (waist 29inches, so vanity sized “28 inch” trousers usually fit).

And I’m no Chris Hoy.

Despite this, I’ve never found trousers in Topman with *any* room in the crotch, let alone the legs and thighs.

These don’t look much different, though I should go see them in person!

Those legs have hardly seen much pedalling have they. Christ, even his Chucks are frigging baggy.

Topshop really haven’t thought this through.

I don’t think his chin has ever seen a razor blade, never mind his legs. 😀

Vests? Goes against Rule #7 unless used in terms of Rule #21 surely? 😕

Rules aside, the only one I sort of like is the black/cream L’etape t-shirt and even then I’m not going to fork out £22 for it.
