Skirt Bicycle Hack

Every person who ever attempted to cycle in a wide skirt on a windy day will probably have had this problem. I know I have. My skirts will not stay down, even though I order them to do so in my sternest voice. Thankfully my husband showed me the website http://pennyinyourpants.co.uk/ . They showed a nifty little trick that keeps my skirt down. They are a charity, so if this hack helps you, feel free to support them. I am not affiliated with them, but I am thankful for their idea. Until now, I had always made my big skirts like pencil skirts by binding the sides together. However, the dress that I am wearing today is not that wide or long.

All you need for this hack are some kind of round shaped object and an elastic band. Since I was on my way back from church I used my hair band and a church coin.

All you need to do now is put the coin behind you, so you can put both the back and the front of the skirt over your coin-shaped object and tie it with your elastic band. A piece of string would work also, but you would have to put a knot or a loop in it.

Now you can get on your bike and get moving, even through stormy weather, without showing more than you want to!
