I had to think twice about this one, and consider what kind of response there might be if it were a guy riding a motorcycle wearing tevas and shorts and a tank-top. I suspect we'd mostly consider him stupid for risking the road-rash in accident, but I wonder why it is that a woman on a bike who is also dressing provocatively would give off Sue vibes...
Then, again, would it be less Sue vibes if she were in black slinky leather from head to toe? It might at least knock off the "stupid rider fashion" complaint (because leather is a damn good riding protection) but as for the rest..?
