I admit, perhaps it went over my head a bit, but it doesn't seem to really make good sense to me.
I'm trying to DECREASE my discomfort, and I can't really see the panty hose making me feel any
better. I mean, the sore is irritating, t'be sure, but it's not really gonna kill me. On the other
hand, wearing panty hose to keep my thighs from rubbing would almost certainly make me batty.

I've known two different guys with that moniker, but they didn't pronounce it "Jan". It came out
more as "Yohn" (rhyming with John).

Dunno how JS pronounces it, though.

Hah, no worries. I've lived with this for 26 years, so I'm used to it.

I bet you thought to pronounce my name to rhyme with 'Anne'. Actually, in my case, it's pronounced
to rhyme with 'Khan', and has a hard 'J'. So 'Jahn', not 'Yahn'. In the end, I tell everyone to just
call me 'Jon'. Easier than trying to teach everyone how to say it properly. I'm extra screwed,
'cause slavic people immediately assume they know how to say it, and sometimes tell me that I'm
pronouncing my own name WRONG.

I get some funny stories out of it, at least. My girlfriend and I were on a mailing list together
once, and everyone just assumed that we were lesbian lovers (something that we tried to play up for
a while), which was amusing.

Oh, and I just measured my legs. They're about 26" each as well.

Obviously not that well - I've never had surgery on my knees

Those markings (I assume your referring to the patches where the skin is missing) are from a rugby
tournament I played that weekend. All the other marks are just normal scars.

Yup. Our dive instructor recommended wearing them as an inner layer under your wetsuit.

I'll try that baby powder thing the next time I'm wearing normal pants. (I've been wearing my Oakley
shorts the last couple of days, and they have a fitted lycra short in them.)

Alas, the only picture of me on a bike is me on my road bike. No matter, I love that bike.

As you can see, I'm not some waif-y climber. It's all this road riding that gave me this problem in
the first place, so I guess it's fitting that all I've got is this roadie picture.

Nice bar-wrap though ;-)

I started shaving my legs after a MTB crash that left me with no skin on my right shin. Basically
the whole thing from knee to ankle was hamburger. Hair, the tenacious stuff that it is, was still
there. After that, I started shaving my legs just so I wouldn't have to put up with yanking the
bandages off of the hair.

I LIKE being colour co-ordinated on my road bike. Besides, like I learned from one of my mechanics,
black bar tape is slow. It's like a parachute. You want the glitzy stuff. Look fast, feel fast, BE
fast. (This bike has gotten me more compliments than I've ever had about a bike. Even at races. I'm
glad, since I'm riding for a shop team. The more people that notice my bike, the better I'm
supporting our sponsors and the store, even if I don't win races yet.

It really is the only way to go. Cruising down a forrest descent, 'freeballing' in a pair of shorts.
Well, that and a spliff, of course.
