[Metro Commuter]

2nd Wheel,

I am well aware that I weigh much more than Commuter, that I am fatter than most in cycling,  that I look terrible in cycling kit (but do provide plenty of advertising space) and that skinsuits are not meant to be worn by people like me.

You can be assured that until I lose about 20kg I will not be wearing a skin suit.  If ever i am tempted to buy a skin suit, perhaps tempted because all the legends on the velodrome wear them, I go and put on my old UNSW or MAc Uni rowing suit (which are kind of like a skinsuit but with a singlet top), from when I did weigh under 90kg, and I am reminded that skinsuits are most unlikely to be a flattering item of clothing for me.

Anyway - you skinny priCks always discriminate against those of us with limited willpower.
