But as for the skirt... make it flare, but not so flare that it flys away. Not one of those circle skirts. Also make it be a heavier faberic. Like denim, or a heavier cottin. Just not a gauzylike, supper thin dressy faberic. And the length should be not longer than mid calf. Knee length may be too short as you are lifting your knees as you pedal. <br /> I love biking. I do casual mountian biking with my brothers, even considered entering some races. Haven't had the courage yet, :) <br />Hope this helps.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9169834773466774362.post-85370319779165311252010-06-18T06:35:47.670-07:002010-06-18T06:35:47.670-07:00I can just see you ripping through your closet try...I can just see you ripping through your closet trying to find appropriate bike to church attire. Since when have you been afraid to show a little thigh?

That way..... Oh, darn. Someone else already suggested that. Hmmm, how about riding to church with pants under your skirt that you can deftly take off and slip into your church bag once you get there?elesahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17933840731880198785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9169834773466774362.post-60094881161830030322010-06-08T20:21:47.482-07:002010-06-08T20:21:47.482-07:00Laughing so hard.

They balloon out so I am sure people can see clear up them so this week, I will be shopping for some biking shorts. That is fun to ride to church! I am impressed, I barely make it to church as it is and I walk about 20 yards.Ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04939965688922719928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9169834773466774362.post-32717580094240464842010-06-07T08:07:33.857-07:002010-06-07T08:07:33.857-07:00Are you sure there isn't a way to ride side sa...Are you sure there isn't a way to ride side saddle?Lyndsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17311098134411154542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9169834773466774362.post-5566254367750684542010-06-06T21:36:49.639-07:002010-06-06T21:36:49.639-07:00Sadly, I have no suggstions, but really you ARE th...Sadly, I have no suggstions, but really you ARE the shopping master, so I have no doubts that you will find something functional as well as stylish.
