And also to colleen

I know that those girls are around. But they're the sidewalk riding type or riding rust buckets because it's convenient. I know, I know, it sounds elitist of me but I was implying the serious commuters and cyclists in general. In fact in my group rides me at 23, I'm the youngest one there regardless of gender. And I meant the members here. We have plenty of ladies but only the guys are posting pics (yes I'll join ya as soon as I can get my gf to take my pic of me spandexed out). And at bike shops too, the roadies buying stuff are all old men. I polled my classmates on UofL and none of the girls have ever thought of riding a bike more than a mile down the sidewalk. Most of my communications class didn't even know it was illegal to do so. sigh. I feel like a cycling island at UofL
