Bad news for you, dude...there is no way you are 5'8". You're barely 5'7" in shoes!!!

That was a great meal ;-) Good choice on the restaurant! I felt like it fueled me so well that I hardly had to eat on the bike the next day for a 5 hour ride.

Not everyone... ; )

When I was single and dating online I was 5'9" but alas no more.

I have three kids 15,10,7 - two girls and a boy. Anyway I eat more than the three of them combined.

Back in my 20s & 30s I could never get over 130lbs. It's kind of interesting since I've started doing triathlon, starting in my late 30's, I've actually put on weight. I used to do lots of Karate - at least 10+ hrs per week.

Guess I'm a slacker

He's at least as tall as I am- 5'7" 1/2.....kj

I thought that was when he was wearing your high heels?

jesus h, guys. i'm right in your height range at 5'9"!!

never thought that i was anywhere near midget status... :(

You people that are 5'7" and 130ish (and not female) really need to beef up. I'm 5'7" and my race weight is 150-155, and that's thin. I suppose skeletal construction plays in here as well, but sheesh...

I have to shop the boys section for clothes these days. I get to wear shirts with monsters and match box toys on--JK. I do find it funny that with all the fat americans, that a 29in waste in the mens section is nonexistent these days. They start at a roomy 32 with stretch panel Dockers, man is this a fat country. Even the 30's I find are bigger than a decade ago.

Actually, I am the forum Midget- 1.64m-



Bjorn warmly refers to my bike as the ultimate circus bike-

looks like there is a team shortwitch.com in the making, with Bjorn as our honourary Gulliver/Clydesdale team manager amongst the Lilliputs after his 5 hour potato chip/Ironman watching extravaganza :-). Man, the entire shortwitch team could draft Bjorn and Kus when they are a mile up the road :-)

well, if you're trying to blend in, come to my house. i'll make you stuffed french toast in the morning, with a fried egg and esspresso (or screwdrivers, whatever you choose ;)

at night I'll make you braised roasted beef with herbed mashed potatos and honey glazed carrots with a nice red wine (or dark beer, again, you choose :)

lol...

Team shortwitch that is very funny!!!!!!!!!!

5'8" racing weight about 150lbs (probably could get to 145 and be healthy to race, but I like eating too much!) I ride either a 54cm or a 53cm depending on the make.

Bjorn- You looked huge next to Backstedt(sp) at interbike. People always talk about what a huge cyclist he is, yet he still has little girly arms.

We are losing the fitness middle class in America. The fit get fitter and the fat get fatter.

Am I missing something...."i'll make you stuffed french toast in the morning"...aren't you married?

I am 5 foot 6 inches and weigh in at 130 pounds (125 on racedays). Ride an XS lucero. Triangle on the bike is so small that i can't even fit a bottle cage in it. I also shop in the boys section for clothing and for shoes. Confessions of the vertically challenged. I am new to this site and will be losing my virginity at IMFLA in 2 weeks. Couldn't make the NBA, so i chose triathlon!!

yes i'm married!!! i was talking about cooking for him, as a joke, to put some weight on him in order to be more like "normal" people. lol! (BTW--lots of people come to eat at my house, i'm always cooking! people over all the time, it's fun :)

I guess I've just always heard the pickup line that goes something like "How do you like your eggs in the morning?" or something like that...

~Matt

what is my photo doing in a thread containing the word "midget"???

is that suppose to mean anything????

ditto that...what's with sizing starting with M for a lot of clothes companies these days? I own stuff that's size XS. and at least a few items of women's clothing because the male equivalent was too big. BTW, I'm 1.67m. I thought Francois was shorter too.
