No Sock= Triathlete. Use extreme caution when riding with this type of rider as they may suddenly jump off there bike and run. Invisible sock= Noob. short sock= Noob The Right length of sock= The guy to ride with. Compression socks= Noob/ weightlifter/ Dan Lloyd.

Anything between ankle height and compression just slide down my legs and drive me crazy. I wear no shows for training. Can’t be uncomfortable working out.

Ugh!! My coach called me out last week on my sock length!! I can't catch a break!! By the way, did you change shorts in the middle of this workout or is that just the lighting? I love the direction you are taking this channel and the success you are having. I'm looking forward to Newsday this week with all of the great 70.3 actions today. #ventumrocks

Was wondering why most cyclist would look at me, damn short/invisible socks. I guess I could cover my ankle with the mid length sock, would not want to lose any friends while cycling on the road... Wait a minute, no body gives conversation here, lucky to get a wave of hand, but noy much more. Yeah, think I will wear what's most comfortable for me, especially that the heat is right around the corner here in Spain. Great video bud! :-)

TAREN WHAT. I started watching your videos a few weeks ago when I started becoming interested in triathlons, so when you just casually mentioned you live in Winnipeg, I SHIT. I live in Winnipeg!!! I'm going to do the Try a Tri at Birds Hill in two months, can I inbox you with crazy specific questions because I'm super overwhelmed with how to train??

I haven't bought into the whole mid-calf sock thing - mostly because I wear shorts and flip flops on the weekends and really do not need my calves looking like my upper arms do, haha (*edit - this is as far as the 'farmers tan' goes, I cycle enough where my arms are relatively tan and my shoulders are NOT). I have done quite a few different sports and never really followed the fad fashions. If I want to wear below ankle socks - that is what I do, if it is overcast and I want to wear mid calf socks - that is what I do. If I am planning on biking and then running 15 or 20 miles after and decide that day I want to try compression socks - I will do that (I have done the bike then run, but not with compression socks, haha). I will try all types of thing to see what "I" like.

Personal preference -- you can if you want, though probably not needed for a short race like that.

I know this is all in fun but there people who get seriously bent out of shape about sock length, they're the same people who ridicule people who wear pro team kits.

I'm with you, Frank Anthony ... I wear whatever I want ... whatever makes me comfortable. I'm not a showboat of a person and I let my riding skills do most of the talking ... I do like ankle socks (I always play basketball in them and wear them on weekends) and some socks are a few inches above my ankles. As long as I'm not physically harming anyone or annoying folks with ridiculous conversation, I ride in a style that's comfortable for me ... I don't need to follow the herd ... I'm not a robot ... But I do have a conservative style (meaning not a lot of flashy colors or prints) because that's just me ... I sometime ride with folks that have a myriad of dress styles on their road bikes and as long as they are happy and can ride, I'm fine with it ...

Any other women out there agree with Taren but still really hate the tan lines you get from anything other than micro socks? Sorry Taren, but I already usually have goggle eyes, possibly helmet hair. I don't also want to look crazy in a sundress and sandals. What's a girl to do? Lol
