See? They're taking over ALL our words! We already can't call ourselves bikers or cyclists without mass confusion and misunderstanding!
The other thing that bugs me is that the gang of ageing motorcyclists with big bear bellies are considered tough but REAL cyclists are sometimes considered pansies.

In my younger days, I worked with a member of the Warlords (similar to Hells Angles). Once we had to walk about 5 city blocks. He could barely keep up, and was exhausted by the end. He wasn’t even fat, just used to riding everywhere

As usual perceptions are far from reality.
