I have actually and seriously contemplated if clipless pedals would be a good idea for a race car. And yes, many of those hold true. I sleep not two feet away from my bike, I judge how much water I am getting by my urine color, and finally, I already have two chainring scars on my right calf, hoping for more:D

You know what time -exactly- you have to leave your house to catch the fewest red lights on your way to work.

Being a cyclist doesn't mean one can't be a driver too. I am a little bit annoyed with the attitude that being pro-bike means one has to be anti-car... as if being against something lends more credibility to being for the other.
