Men,
fabulous men!Whenwas the last time you chanced on a mother load of fit, attractive and positivemen? – with very few women in sight?……you’re surrounded by them? No? You havemore than you can cope with? No?……want to know more? ……
Yes?….are you sure?Okgather round, gather round. I was leafing through the mags in the Dentist’swaiting room (just a scale and polish please!) when I came across one that waspublished this year….in fact this month…..and since it still had it’s cover andall of its
pages and didn’t look like it had been mauled by a yeti wielding anice cream cone I dipped in for a browse.Leisurelyleaf through the first few glossy pages of designer goodies(dahling! the fourfigure price tags), quiet stroll through pages of truly stunning scenic photography, quickly past the specialinterest – and not so specialist articles….and as I wandered through, being a girl – well, a woman , - Ibegan to notice one thing……after I
noticed the muscular thighs and tight bumsof course and the fact that there was not a “grow your own beer belly” insight….and the fresh air and stamina driven endorphins that seemed to leap offthe page and the sometimes muddy and sweat soaked muscles on twenty-, thirty-,fabulous forty- and even some fantastically preserved fifty-somethingbods…….not to mention the total yee – hah feel good style of writing………..and….where was I?… Oh yes - I noticed …….well, I noticed the only women(all decentlydressed) were in the ads not the reality photos……………..and all you need to do toaccess this mother load of men is…..buy a
bike!! Yes this magazine was “SingleTrack” and we’re talking mountain
biking - the adult kind.Nowbefore you sign off in droves think about it, girls – and boys too if it’s yourpref. What’s in this hobby for you? Thesemen are fit, healthy, competitive, with phenomenal stamina, won’t mind if youdon’t wear stilettos and three inches of makeup – in fact it’s preferable whenyou’re biking - and my goodness, there’s more permutations to these bikes thanbeauty products in Harvey Nicks beauty hall not to mention the outfits(including fabulous designer shades)….. so the chances for retail therapy –amazing – honey, these price tags will give your plastic a seriousworkout!……which, ahem, also implies that adult guys who mountain bike are……..well, as my mum would
say, they’re“comfortably off”. And for all you single mums or dads of teenagers out therewhat better opportunity to bond with your own kids – and use them as a cover tostake out the other parent talent ?Thenyou also get a free natural high ….. fresh air, exercise, freedom to be a kidagain…well, quite a competitive kid……..so much better than any club in any cityon any singles night out…not that the social life is wanting either – to findyour very own mountain biker head for Fort William in the Scottish Highlandsfor the Fort William Mountain Festival between the 16th February and3rd March 2007 - clearly lots of socialising after long days in thesaddle.Andif you’d rather stand by the side of the track and admire – though, be warned,you may get left behind – the linked website’s got some fab ideas for Chrissiepressies for your man.And,by the way, in the edition I read it did say that in three months you can lose10 kgs…..and get perfect thighs and bum into the bargain – so even if you don’tfind the man of your dreams what’s wrong with looking like, say, Elle McPhersonin lycra?
