Good for horse riding is also good for iron horse riding. I think the dressing up is like a ritual and that when the are out on the roads they like to imagine that they are heroic athletes. The biking sport is a crazy endeavour that easily lend itself to heroic myth. A bit like I, when I was a child and had to walk long distance always started to imagine that I was a foreign legionnaire traversing a desert. Somehow that helps.
