Finally getting to the good weather up here! Worked on my speedo tan in the backyard today.
My current 3 faves...
1) classic black Speedo, 28, (2" sides, old-school lycra)
2) Aussiebum WrestleMe, XS, (fun suit, love the feel... but no idea where I'd ever wear it!)
3) Arena royal blue low-rise square cut, 30, (a surprise... cheap ebay find... wasn't my usual size, but fit great!)
Always on the hunt for the perfect suit... perfect material/cut/size/color.
If you're in southeast Michigan, hit me up. Would be great to meet some new friends, hang out and bbq if someone's got a pool or boat or something.

Ha! Guess I need to take some pics.
I had been putting that off until my abs got in better shape... almost have them. So close!

Welcome ExBex from another in the north land, this is exciting to have another in the snow belt who suffered from a brutal winter, and now we can get outside. We haven't had any speedo weather yet, you are one lucky speedoier!
Will say though, you have joined a group of very non-judgmental guys and gals, so don't be shy! We are rather happy to know you are among us, so keep speedoing, and looking forward to what ever you may grace us with.

I wouldn't have used the word "lucky" after this winter, but now that you mention it, it can always be worse!

Texas: thanks. I was the same way with a singlet. But they're pretty sweet. Get one!
Given the name of the forum, had to at least post a classic in my first thread:

Looking great!!!
I've been wanting one of those aussiebum singlets for a while. Yours fits great! Out of interest, how tall are you? I'm tossing up between the S or XS...

I want to say that you are the first to post a singlet in one's avatar, kudos my speedo friend!

Thanks everyone for the kind words and welcomes.
T419... I'm 5-10. The aussiebum material is so stretchy, I don't think height is much of a problem. It'll adjust a lot. I'd size it to waist. I normally wear a 28 (USA sizing) and the XS was perfect for me.
Snowbrief... I guess it's weird to do a singlet avatar on a speedo forum, but I had a limited number of pics to choose from! I went with the more colorful option.
