Sweet ride! So, how does the congregation feel about cycling attire? I have found that the majority of people can tolerate the tight fitting clothing as long as you are sitting down. The minute you stand up, it's all over. Most days I wear a suit coat to church. You must have felt brave! Good job! Lol

Ha ha... Our church is very casual. Jeans, shorts, t-shirts, everyday clothes. I actually put my riding tights on under my jeans and, like superman, pull off all of the outer clothing, jump on my bike and take off...usually before anyone realizes what's happening :-)
