Notre coup de coeur <3 du moment...

Bikes, skirts and bare legs


J'adore les jupes et les robes (comme la plupart des femmes). I'm also a big fan of my bike. However, I was a bit apprehensive about getting on the Hibou in anything without pant legs. I'm not the only one who feels this way. At first, I rode around with leggings underneath my outfit and then would take them off take them off at my destination (read: work). But when our short summer finally arrived and it was time to ditch the leggings!

For me, the key is finding the right skirt/dress to ride in. I don't have skirt guards, so the skirt can't be too long. Too short is obviously not an option. The material should have some weight to it, so it won't be easily blown upwards and create a "parachute" effect. Fluidity in the fabric is nice too, for comfort. The girls over at Let's Go Ride a Bike have some great tips too.


For my first ride wearing a skirt, I was afraid of some inadvertent underwear action, but it ended up being a flash-free trip. As you can see here, now I love going out for a spin in a skirt. Yay for bare legs under summer skirts en vélo :)
