I also love to ride, and I own an Avanti MTB with slick tyres (1.5"). It's pretty fast and I can ride really aggressively in the urban environment. A couple of times a year I put the knobbys on and head up to the hills although there aren't big ones around here...
Where do you cyclists buy jeans? I'm a 34" waist, but the only jeans which fit my thighs are 36" - 38". I have pretty big legs, and love to do leg press, squats, etc at the gym - but buying jeans is IMPOSSIBLE. any tips?
