- I sometimes forget to carry a lock, a few times I have left my road bike parked outside a supermarket unsecured

- I will happily slow traffic down by riding in the center or outside of the lane if I think the road has potholes, puddles, patches of detritus, or an uneven surface that could disrupt my rhythm

- I almost definitely pronounce Cervelo incorrectly

- Last week i went past a cyclist with a mechanical problem at the side of the road & I didn't stop to see if I could help

- I wash my bikes about once every 3 years

- I have a favourite pair of cycling socks which I rarely wear because I don't want them to wear out

- My approach to replacing bike components is usually to buy whatever seems like a good deal, whether its compatible is secondary

- I think I am almost as good as the pro cyclists I see on TV, just marginally slower

- I have spokey dokes on one of my road bikes

- I think cycling above 20/25mph is dangerous

- I ride with clipless pedals but i just wear normal trainers

- I spent a few minutes thinking about how much weight I could save if I shaved my beard

- I have never climbed above around 500 feet above sea level

- I use my drops so rarely i could save money on handlebar tape by only wrapping the top of the handlebar

- I edited this post several times to correct spelling, add bulletpoints, and line up each sentence
I confess that I didn't read all of this post.
