Mountain biking en femme

I like marking all the trees with my dog!  He does....not me (I am a lady, we go behind a bush)!

Peace, quiet, fresher air and sooo enticing smells along the way

Mountain biking is one of my passions and I've thought about how I might do it en femme. For me to feel femme I need my wig and makeup and mountain biking is such a sweaty pursuit I envision the combination to be not pretty! I have decided to grow my hair long, and this is one of the reasons, so maybe one day...

I usually bike on average once every two weeks.  I break up my exercise regimen between hiking, swimming, biking and kayaking.  I do avoid wearing much make up when biking because it is sweaty business.  I wear my hair in a ponytail which does keep me a little cooler.  Great activity for reflection when on a bike trail.

Hi Lanna,

In May I started riding my mountain bike.

I purchased it 3 years ago and it's been sitting in the garage. I was road riding just about every two days until I got called back to work two weeks ago. With the commute, I haven't had the energy to ride since. After reading this post I was imagining putting a fake pony tail on my helmet to feel the swishing back and fourth.

Hugs

On warm summer days I have an old girls bike I bought for 20 dollars and I like to beach cruise along the bike path. I am usually in a girlie tshirt with bra and cotton skirt or yoga pants. No helmet is required so I wear a hat and no wig but hair extension for a ponytail. No makeup but Jackie O sunglasses with hoop earrings and blend in well. I so enjoy it and especially with a friend on a summer afternoon.  More of a casual outing than an exercise regime and always a thrill.

One day, hopefully.

buuut, like you girls have said, you want/need to look and feel femme, and that ain’t easy with the sweat and dirt and stuff. Maybe when I’m a few more months into my transition.... maybe after a few hair removal sessions... 🙄

But, but but.... there’s never a perfect time to do anything...

I’m a roadie. Before I had a mild stroke almost 4 years ago, I was good for 55-60 miles. However, I haven’t been on my bike since. I’ve been fixin’ ta’, but so far not yet. My balance was effected, but While it isn’t 100%, I think it is now sufficient to start riding again. I’ve never done any riding while dressed. The complication is that I don’t go anywhere without makeup. Not sure how that will work out...

Went biking on a local trail this morning with my wife. I was wearing athleta shorts, a sports bra, panties, and a men’s shirt. Not sure how you’d classify that, but I enjoyed the feeling.

I haven't been on a bike in a few years. Mine has a punctured inner tube, and I haven't gotten around to fixing it.

What a coincidence. I was telling my wife yesterday that I was going to start riding my mountain bike again. And definitely en femme.  Being retired, I'm en femme every day.  Just got home from walking my dog; I wore my skinny jeans, androgynous top, bra, pink socks, ladies sneakers, and ladies sunglasses. My natural hair is very long (down past my bra strap) so I pretty much pass most of the time.  My dog turned 14 years old last week so she is really slowing down hence the need for me to supplement my exercise regime with mountain biking.  I ride a recumbent exercycle every morning but that's kind of boring; it would be better outside on the trails. Sounds like a good thing to do this afternoon. Stay healthy, stay safe, Hugs, Krista.

not yet, but it's on the list "to do" now!!
