That tight clothing pleasure

[Seineseeker]

You know I used to think it was just pulling on those tight cycling shirts and shorts, or stretching those arm or leg warmers onto my limbs that gave me a thrill. But these days you can get all these lovely base layers too, you can stretch stuff onto your (presumably lithe) body right from the start. It's a delight!

Don't you agree boys and girls?

Why don't you all go diving?  Rubber suits and 60m of pressure.   Narcosis as well.

Since tripping over the above information while innocently googling for an Assos skinsuit I have converted to merino jerseys, thank you very much.

My triathloin wettie is quite tight enough... and shiny!

When skinsuits were first invented, Cycling (not then 'Weekly') recommended that older cyclists should avoid wearing them because they tended to "look like bags of firewood".

Mmmmm, encasement!
