This story is a work of fiction. A figment of the author's imagination. It is not meant to be big on realism. It's a fantasy. The culture around world-class women's cycling probably isn't a hotbed of lesbian lust, but wouldn't it be fun if it were?
All characters are fictitious. At the same time, they are all over 18...

Riding With Dirty Girls.
6. Trentino
I peered out of the window again and the snow was still falling, sweeping through the orange glow of the sodium street lights in whirling gyres of heavy flakes The TV was full of dire warnings about "essential journeys only" and "more snow to come," but the only thing that bothered me was whether I'd be able to do my planned ride the next day.
Oh well, no point in worrying about it, I'd just have to see in the morning. I turned the heating up a few degrees and settled down to watch a film.
The snow-plough/gritting lorry went past twice in the next couple of hours, its yellow flashing light flicking across my curtains.
Many people won't know this, but Scotland has over 100 snow ploughs/gritters -- lorries responsible for spreading rock salt, and clearing all the main roads -- and all of them have humorous names, given to them by their crews. Our local one is called "Spready Mercury."
Anyway, apart from Spready going past a couple of times, it was deathly silent. Everything was blanketed and nothing was moving. It wasn't looking promising for cycling the next day.
It was Saturday night of the middle weekend between Dublin and Trento, and I really needed to get a long Sunday ride in, before I tapered down to the next race, and if I couldn't get out I'd have to do a long session on the indoor trainer, which I hate with a passion.
Riding indoors on a static bike is THE most boring way to train; 20 minutes feels like an hour, and a couple of hours (the minimum I'd have to do) is a small eternity. PLEASE stop snowing...
After the film finished, I decided to relax myself with a little solo session, which always helps me to sleep more soundly. I took myself up to bed at something like 9:30pm, made the bedroom cosy, with soft lighting etc, and took off my baggies and knickers.
I left my sweatshirt on for a bit of warmth. It wasn't cold in the house, but it was snowing outside, so it was really just a psychological thing.
Towel on the bed (of course) and I lay back on the pillows with legs apart, and started playing... stroking my pubes, then squeezing my plump outer lips together. I know from the other women I've been with that my mons and labia majora are unusually full and fleshy. I always have to make sure my cycling shorts have a generous and well-positioned pad in them, otherwise the shape of my vulva shows embarrassingly through them.
I slipped a single finger between my lips, right at the bottom, where my little well of juice was forming, then trailed it up to my clit, parting my inner lips and anointing them with slipperiness. I parted my outer lips with two fingers of one hand, while circling my clit with the single finger. Oh, fuck that felt good. I closed my eyes and just savoured the feeling for a few moments. The beatific bliss of sexual stimulation. The pleasure of the flesh.
Suddenly, I had a devilish thought. I bet Maisie would love to see some lewd and improper images of me wanking. It would be very early evening in Atlantic City and just the right time to start her night off with a bang. It also took the pleasure of my wank up a few notches, knowing that Maisie would, in some small way, be sharing it, later that evening.
With nothing but fingers, I brought myself slowly to a wonderful, toe-tingling climax, pausing occasionally to take close-up photographs of my sex in all its stages of arousal. Sometimes, I had fingers deep inside, and sometimes I was just parting my lips, to show off my glistening pink wetness. The final shot was immediately post-orgasm, showing my dribble of grey-white cream, and the large damp patch on the towel. A very horny finale.
I sent the pics in a series to Maisie, with a message saying 'Here's something to make your evening go a bit more smooothly,' She didn't answer immediately (maybe she was busy or something), so I got up and went to the bathroom.
Before getting into bed, I looked out of the window again, to see that it had at least stopped snowing, and then my phone went ping.
'OMFG are you kidding me? Chloe, these are smoking hot. You're SUCH a bad, bad girl. I'm already taking my pants off...'
I chuckled to myself and sent back 'Enjoy,' with a lip-licking emoji, then I turned off the light and snuggled down under the covers.
In the morning, I was pleased to observe that the road was almost snow-free. The ploughing and spreading had done its job. So, I planned a route on main roads, which I hoped would all be clear, and just a short 4-mile link on a smaller road (amusingly called Twatt Lane) which I'd keep my fingers crossed for.
It went surprisingly well. Although the hills and fields were under a blanket of pristine white, the roads had been well-cleared and there were only a few little bits of slush to watch out for.
It was great, riding along through the winter wonderland, on roads that had been mostly cleared of traffic by all the dire warnings on the telly. I just enjoyed "the soothing feel of the rolling wheel," and escaped into reverie, as I sometimes do when I'm out on a basic conditioning ride like this. I think it's a form of Zen.
Of course, I thought about racing, the races gone, and the ones still to come, and I thought about sex and the girls on the tour. Inevitably, my mind dwelled on Licia and those two magical days we'd just had.
My feeling on the plane home from Dublin was that I could easily fall for her. She pushed way more buttons than just my sexual ones, which was what I'd found so scary, but I had got my feelings in order again now. Yes, she was great, but so were, Maisie, Helen, Mari, Annike... Lucy. I had relationships with all these women on some level, not to mention Molly and Fanny, who were almost like family to me now. I reflected that I was in a happy place just exactly how I was.
And then I arrived at Twatt Lane. This minor road hadn't had any ploughing or gritting at all -- Spready had given Twatt a miss -- and it was under 3 or 4 inches of snow. There was just one set of tyre tracks, left by a solitary 4x4.
I stopped and took a picture of the lane's name sign, which I thought Maisie would appreciate, and I pondered for a minute. To complete my loop using only the main roads would add almost 20 miles, and that was unpalatable. I knew the lane was pretty flat, so there were no climbs or descents to deal with, and it was only 4 miles. Come on, Chloe, I chided myself, you're the leader of the Cyclocross World Cup, get on with it.
I embarked on the lane. I'd really rather have been on my 'cross bike, than a road bike, but it was manageable. I initially followed one of the 4x4 tyre tracks, where the snow was more compacted, but after a couple of miles that came to an end, where the vehicle had emerged from a gateway. I was then on soft virgin snow.
My initial thought was 'Oh crap,' but once I got fairly into it, I found it was great fun, powersliding on the bends, wrestling with the 'bars, and sometimes trailing a foot for balance like a motocross rider. I only came off once; a gentle slide to the ground when I fell foul of an adverse camber, which just left me sat in the snow, laughing.
At the end of the 4-mile link, when I emerged onto the main road again, I was enjoying myself so much, I almost turned around to do it again.
