New kilt and bicycle

Here is an image that, if my memory serves correctly, was posted on Utilikilts original website.



I, too, remember all those historical things pbpersson cited. Since Western world women are unlikely to go back to skirts and dresses anytime soon, perhaps men should co-opt the "girls bike", shorten our kilts, and slow the pace of our lives to allow for longer travel times.

You asked a question; we've offered our advice and experiences; it's now up to you to go and try whatever you like... but we do expect a report or two on the trials and (especially) errors.

Welcome from Carlisle England--I would not risk a kilt on a bike, to much of a gamble

Oooo... I don't know... That looks hazardous if wearing the kilt in the traditional manner.

And you wouldn't want to do that in the rain... it would paint a dirty stripe up the backside of the kilt. esp. a white kilt!

A warm (and wet) welcome from West Texas but bike riding just looks too risky in a kilt. IMHO

When I was a kid in the 1950's all bicycles had fenders so you wouldn't get splashed with mud. What happened to fenders? That's what we need in that picture!

I wear a kilt, regimental, to the annual World Naked Bike Ride, Toronto, on the second Saturday of June each year. I sit on the back part of the kilt, though, and it hangs down in front covering what it should (till the ride begins )

And when the ride begins what do you do with the kilt then?

Difficult to sit on without creasing and you don't want bits (of the kilt that is ) caught in the spokes!
