Out and About -- In the World at Large

[FLbreezy]

The Mrs and I walked on an Atlantic ocean beach in north-east Florida yesterday morning. She was wearing a dress and I was wearing a t-shirt and a brown Purple Rain hiking skirt. Everyone acted like it was totally normal: we chatted with people as we walked, everyone was friendly, a woman walking her dog asked if we wanted our picture together (she saw us take a selfie), etc...it was wonderful.

Skirted Bike Outing #1: I'm not counting this as a jaunt, otherwise, I'd post it there, this was just something I decided to do on a whim. Anyhoo, here I am, near the Philadelphia Museum of Art on my first bike ride of 2025 which takes me on a scenic path for cyclists and runners along the Schuylkill River. Usually, I wear men's cargo shorts or sweatpants over padded bike pants when I ride, but, on this occasion, I opted for a 15 inch faded denim skirt, and, it was not only fun, but more comfortable as well. Already I'm thinking about buying a padded seat cover so I can get rid of the bike pants and just go with the skirt for future rides.

Oh, for the record, I rode some 17 miles round trip

Is this you branching out in your skirt wearing into other parts of your life? My first thought was for you to be careful, since I remember you telling us that it would be dangerous to be seen in a skirt near where you live? Other than that, I am happy to see your skirting life getting bigger.

Well, I only have time ride on Sunday mornings, and I leave home early (7 am) to avoid crowds on the aforementioned path, especially on the return trip. Otherwise, it was pretty okay, no problems at all.

Great to see someone else cycling in a mini skirt.
I have more to say but I continue on the Bike Riding thread as not to cause thread drift.

I had just been to a nearby village shop wearing a T-shirt and a black utility kilt, when I was congratulated bu a Scottish chap for my clothing choice.
