I commute on a road bike and ride in a couple of triathlons a year but don't consider myself a "roadie". There's a whole roadie subculture and since I don't really participate in that culture at all, I don't count myself as one of them. I've got nothing against roadies and all that's really standing in the way of my considering myself one is starting to do regular club rides. I may or may not ever do that.

By the same token, a lot of people might call me a Catholic since I regularly attend a Catholic church (though it's a very liberal one), went to a Catholic school, and was even an alter boy. But I believe that significant parts of the Bible are pretty much fiction, or at best a bad translation, so I don't consider myself a Catholic.
