Who is unwrapping their pins this weekend?

Plenty out around Leeds/Wakefield area today, lots had numbers on so I'm guessing there was an event going on nearby. I had my shorts on and even my short sleeve top today. The arm warmers went on though before I dropped into Otley, not sure why it always feels cold the minute you head down towards Caley.

Of the many out, I think only a handful appeared to be in shorts.

Knee warmers this morning...still a chill in the air.

tights and winter jersey, necessary when starting at 07:30, but pretty warm by early afternoon.

How long is a football match? A good bike ride would be three or four times as long and as has been said - it's a lot cooler at speed.

No shorts for me today. Torrential rain. Still it's good to get some miles out of the rain kit.

Not to mention that halfway through a football match, you can grab a full change of clothes!

I was like a frozen drowned rat when I got home. Tights, gabba etc. I did see a few wearing shorts in the torrential rain.

It was blowin a hoolie oot there the day!
bare legs can wait...

I was out in thermal jersey (no base layer), shorts and knee warmers today in Leeds, at times I needed a base layer and at others a thinner jersey would have done.

It's a tough call at the moment.

Shorts, jersey, base layer, arm warmers and windstopper gilet today. Dry roads, sunshine, no wind. Felt great. Bring on the summer.

Shorts, base layer, no gloves and an Altura windproof jacket today for me, it was absolutely gorgeous weather and soooo nice having the wind blow through me hairy legs. Temp hit 8c today, very nice.

Went out for a couple of hours this afternoon after the rain had stopped.

Saw 18 other cyclists, only one of whom was in shorts. For the record, I wore Ron Hill Tracksters over shorts, my advocacy of Tracksters has previously been ridiculed on this forum, so no need for further comment.

As a former footballer and cross country runner, sports in which shorts are always worn, I wonder why cyclists don't also wear shorts all year round.

I only cover up because I'm an OAP and feel the cold these days.

Kept the bib tights on yesterday as it wasn't the temperature but the strong wind that went with it. I much prefer to be warm on a long ride than feel the chill set in. Oh by the way it was the Ashdown sportive epic route, I found it a bit of a struggle at times against that wind but made it all the way.

It's been thermal longs or warmers this winter, apart from just knee warmers when racing.
Was leg warmers yesterday, it was still in the low singles at 7am yesterday.
I'm all for keeping the knees covered below 15, having varying weights of warmers help.
Riding at 0 with uncovered knees just makes you a fool, not a hardman.

Plenty of cyclists out in Bristol today, I left home with a jacket and LS jersey but had to put the jacket in my pannier after 2 miles of gentle climbing.

Jacket, tights, waterproof trousers and cleated wellies today. 11 degrees, 40kph wind and pissing down in Glasgow.

Saw two other cyclists in an hour and a half on the road...

Regretted my tights and LS gabba today - it really was a proper shorts/kneewarmers/armwarmers sort of day.
Bloody glorious.

I ended up getting them out in the end Though my fairly unscientific straw poll suggested I was definitely in the minority when looking around.

Lots of folks out lapping out the sunshine today, lovely day for it.

If its a cyclo cross race, they are uncovered, other wise double digits (15+)

ooh everybody's a hard man.

You have to keep your legs warm through the winter rides to get the best out of them. This weekend might be the first time in a while that the shorts won't be accompanied by the leg warmers though.

I have not worn full length tights at all in over a year, they were put away in the Autumn of 2013. My legs have had exposed skin on my calves all through the winter, I've had knee warmers and shorts or 3/4 bibs regardless of the temperature.

Had the legs out today in Manchester it was almost summer

Started last week here in Catalunya. But only in the middle of the day, 15-20°, early mornings still precariously close to zero!

Its been a really mild winter, Shorts over thermal shorts.

I cant be seen wearing leggings. Commute everyday.

Legs got shave three weeks ago.

Still on the fingered gloves though.

Shorts? I had a quick ride today not realising I was still wearing pyjama trousers under my jeans! (Morning routine a bit rushed!) I wondered why early March felt warmer than usual...

i got the pins out for last week's cat 4s but haven't since...

Doing my local 25 miler in about an hour and might give the shorts a try. I've been wearing them all winter but I hate long cycling 'shorts'.
