Welcome to our world!
There was an amusing thread about a month ago from a guy who's wife said, "You and that Forum lot are all crazy..." It's good reading if it can be found.

You actually KNOW how much a gram is!

From JavaMan Jr:
You can spend an entire day picking out a sport bottle.

You have tan lines from your sunglasses permanently etched into your face.

You can remember the top three cyclists from the TDF in 1993, but not your kid's teacher

While driving, you try to beat the car beside you to the next township sign. In your defense, that other driver deserved to be hooked in to the weeds!

You buy Levis to fit your legs, and have way too much room at the waist.

You flinch when you cross railroad tracks in your car

You ski just to stay in shape for mt bike season

You just start out with the duct tape on the ends of your handlebar wrap

You have an 18lb bike and a 20lb Camel Back

You need a separate dresser for all the "organized ride" t-shirts you've amassed
