You know you're a clyde when...

...Smart cars draft you.
...during a sprint or climb your full carbon frame flexes like a lug steel frame.
...you laugh at skinny riders talking about the grams they saved by swapping out pedals.
...after losing some weight your clothes are as ill fitting as they were BEFORE the weight loss.
...after losing weight someone asked you where you were able to buy parachute pants, you nonchalantly respond they aren't parachute pants but "fat pants".
