What do you call yourselves?
I've always wondered, what is the correct/accepted denomination for a bicycle commuter?
I've seen "commulist" once. |
I don't know that there is a specific term. I just refer to myself as a bike commuter.
|
I'm a guy who likes to ride his bike to work when the weather is nice.

Nice weather for a ride today, especially after all the wind earlier this week. |
Where are you going exactly? There are many ways to avoid the College+HT intersection. Yeah the Eastbound wind after work was quite a workout :)
|
I'm lucky enough to pull off at Stanford, the road on the east of the mall, so I dont hit the intersection. Horsetooth still has wheel grabber storm drains and the bike lane kind of disappears for a while. But other than that I have a straight shot up the powerline to harmony, cross at the light, and I'm two blocks from my office. Where are you dodging traffic?

Freds and Dorrises.

I'm not sure.....
I know what others call me and sometimes, it's not very nice. But as long as they're not throwing anything at me or running at me with their cars, I don't care. When I'm on my bike and they're in their car; I'm the happier honcho.... unless of course they're driving a Porsche.... I've always wanted a Porsche... I have kids instead. |

I've seen "commulist" once. I like to call myself "Cyclist" I call myself a "Biker" once, but everyone ask what motorcycle I have... -__-; |
I'm an ordained bicyclist!
|
Cycling commuter-holic.
However, it seem like other call me the "B" word out on the street. :p |
"working joe" trying to get there and earn a living for my family.

My commute is too short. |
There ought to be a noun. Bicommuters deserve a noun.
|
I call myself Tom, most of my co-workers call me crazy, but they did that before I started bike commuting... most of the time, when I talk about it, I just call myself a guy who loves to ride his bike.
|
I call myself a patriot. Considering the economic damage done to America by burning imported oil in cars and the risk to life and limb I experience on our roads it's the most appropriate label I can think of. I consider carcissists to be agents of Al Qaida, wittingly or otherwise.
|
Call myself "lucky" to be able to ride to work. I like cyclist, because that covers more than commuter.
|
I like the sound of "Cyclokitty of the Apocalypse". Let's see if that gets popular.
|
bicycle commuter
If you're looking for one word and want to distance yourself from guys who ride motorcycles, cyclocommuter or If distancing yourself from a roadie, Fred/Doris |
