I have never liked those cyclist pants.

Too long to show real thigh, too short to be real pants.

In a word, fartsy.

Trust me, if you're riding any further than let's say 5 miles, you'll want a pair of those no matter how silly people think they look. Don't wear them and you'll get wicked chafing on your inner thighs. Not fun.

i used cycle alot when i was in college, and for the record...im not a friend of Dorothy either.  cycling, especially in the foothils east of Bakersfield, is pretty taxing on the body. 

to assume, that because someone wears clothes that you don't like, or may look funny, would have a differing sexual orientation, is absurd

lets look at WHY the cyclists may hang out at Bagels and Blenderz...they are one of only a handful of stores that sell healthy breakfast baked goods (doughnuts muffins and all that other crap doesnt fit in with a healthy lifestyle), and bagels are a good source of carbohydrates.....energy immediately ready to burn in the body..which is needed while performing intense cardiovascular exercise.

also, their  blended drinks are great to have after an intense workout....for recovery purposes....maybe thats why the "jesters in clown suits" hang out there??

if you have never met any members of the Kern Wheelman...for the record, none of them are Gay either, all are very successful people within the community, each with their own contributions to the welfare of the community......

before you start cracking on someone on the way they dress, you might want to study up first, because all you did was profess your ignorance

I think the piece was opinion and name calling. If you're going to critique the establishment, get specific. For example, I seldom go the McD's because I think the patties taste like filler has been added. I almost never go to KFC because no matter what the secret spices are, it tastes like overpriced greasy dead bird. The Tilted Kilt is not a family-orientated restaurant, it's a titty bar. Those are my opinions based on my personal experience and observations; what the clientele is wearing or their lifestyle has nothing to do with them.

Unless figures have changed drastically, restaurants thrive or belly-up on their own merit, whether it's food, price, or atmosphere. For every dollar taken in, about 80 cents comes from a repeat customer. Most customers don't tell the establishment they are not happy. They simply pay the tab and never come back. About 70% of restaurants belly-up within the first year. It's a tough way to make a buck and a slow method to get rich. You can open a joint, do everything right, and still not make it.

You guys obviously don't remember ericbako.   If you did, you'd realize his comment was pure feces stirring.  LOL.

And it worked.
