I order the same sizes in DNA that I did in TwinSix, but where the T6 gear is baggy, this stuff fits. It's weird only because I'm not used to things fitting. None of it looks bad though. It's definitely some of the most comfortable gear I own. Can't wait to get the new kit!!!! Oh – @Beth, if you are reading this, let me know if you didn’t get your size question answered.

I'm SO with you on gender. I can't understand why the Tour de France won't at least give the ladies a trial run. I'd sign up for paid extras and follow just as close if not more closely than the men. Have you seen the women's race highlights (since they didn't televise it - jerks) from the final day of le Tour? OMG! It was awesome. I'm REALLY enjoying this race report and kind of don't want it to end. But you have to get caught up cause I can't wait to read about Leadville (yes, I know it hasn't happened yet). I have to add Lindsey to my list of cycling inspirations/idols with The Hammer and The Swimmer. Goodness, you are related to some exceptional ladies! Maybe we need a Fatty Family Tour de France? :) Or maybe a Fatty Ladies Tour de France?! Happy Belated Birthday! :)

Super fun. Didn't really effect my power. After the goat rodeo we had on leg 1, our only strategy moving forward was hoping the Fatty Family derailed. Which didn't happen. Great race guys.

Everyone: Vince's story is highly recommended, though it does get to the finish line a LOT faster than mine, so will contain spoilers. - FC</blockquote> Yep, I was diagnosed with mono on race day.
