_____________ and _____________!!!!!!!!

in my area.... seemingly unfriendly. I give a friendly wave from atop my vintage steed and barely get a nod. Oh well.

I second the response of "faster than me":)

easily swayed into buying real expensive equipment

"not sponsored by the companies on their jerseys"

"homeless... at least in my city"

brave.

Or stupid.

I prefer the former :D

"not sponsored by the companies on their jerseys"

................obsessed.

addicted to C&V or Foo.

riding bikes way less than they talk about them.

My mom told me I'm special....so there

Even the most hardened Harley rider gives me a wave (not the middle finger wave either).

... one spoke short of a wheel.

...amazed to find out they DON'T look good in lycra.

Did you ride the short bus? :D

Did you ride the short bus? :D

I even brought powdered sugar for the windows:p

Mmmmm, powdered sugar...

Sorry, Robbie. This one's a fail.

Jackasses.

Sorry, but the latest and greatest crowd makes up a too sizable percentage of "cyclists". There's nothing I hate more than trying to go out for a leisurely ride with the wife on a trail and have to deal with all of the lycra and an aero bar cyclists. There's always too many guys (and a few gals) that are out to pull a PR on multi-use paths. My thought process is that if you want to go fast, get out there with the cars.

Geez your a fun guy, thanks for your input.

...trying to get somewhere on a bike. Honestly, though, since most of my bike riding is for transportation to either the workplace, the store, or the city pool, most cyclists I see are doing the same. It's kind of rare that I see cyclists who are obviously (that is, clad in Lycra and riding the coooolest bikes) riding for sport. But they'd be out on the long, continuous streets like Hines Drive.

... too serious.

...in this forum, knowledgeable, inventive, funny, obsessive, shrewd, generous. Elsewhere, meh.

dead.

Really. Think about how many cyclists are now buried underground since the invention of the hiwheel!

And we will be too, someday! So get out there and ride until you can no longer do so!

...amazed to find out they DON'T look good in lycra.

Shhhh ! !

...are way too worried about a few grams.

My bike weighs more than yours and I'm faster. Ha

Smiling.

Ha, I had that song on an album by Fanny decades ago, but just learned to play it recently. I don't think I have the original recording anywhere....

...wondering if the fork is bent.

Content with just one bike.

sexy

strange

I was listening to it on vinyl as played by the Beatles when I read his original comment. It just fit so well... Who knew, that John and Paul were competitive cyclists who trained on MUPs?

blissfully unaware of the superiority of vintage steel. :D

Terrible with marriages.

Just an observation...

What happens when two "faster than me" cyclist meet on the road?

Don't know how to use DT shifters..........And don't have to ride their bicycles to school through 6 feet of snow during the winter months with just pine cone nuts and icicles that they pick up along the way for lunch everyday......:p
