I always imagine that if I could get other people to try it and find out how much fun it is, they'd become bike nuts too.
I too imagine (mildly) that I'm a TDF rider, or some other awesome pro cyclist of the past. It's kind of inspiring when I'm out of the saddle climbing a tough hill.
Main reasons: (1) Fun (2) Fitness (3) Health (4) So I can eat a treat after work every Friday, and dessert after Sunday dinner
