It seems like most take a cyclist more serious when they're wearing skintight Lycra kits and dressed like a racer on the Tour de France.

Is this a bad thing, though? I don't mean Lycra is a bad thing, I mean some people think you have to look like that to be a real cyclist.

What do you all think about this topic? Do you wear tight-fitting cycling kits when you ride?
