I am sure that non-cyclists judge us cyclists by the way we the cyclist dress. A guy riding an old beat up MTB wearing jeans and dark hoody is looked upon as some "looser" who probably has a DUI and has no choice but to ride his bike for transportation, but a guy riding a road racing bike wearing his fancy spandex cycling kit is considered a rich and successful person who is just riding for sport.
