Unflipped and lifted, a Fred guide to upright riding on drop bars-the definitive guide to not bending over while seated.

Fortunately, no need to go to Fred school. An Android app will soon be appearing in the marketplace. We just need to reach out to all the Freds who don't know they are Freds.

I may have some Fred like qualities in me. Will I be banned if I do?

Fredeconomics...

This one really got me laughing!

Where can I find a " I am a Fred " jersey ? I have been a fred all my life , and proud of it .

Naw. In fact, if you had no Fred-like qualities at all, you'd likely to be shunned for being too boreing.

Hey I've only done this once!

The rest of the time I've put those Schrader adapters on my Presta valves.

"The Fine Art of Asking Stupid Questions" Framing and sentence structure to obtain the answer you want. Advanced breakout session... Arguing effectively to discredit correct answers you do not like.

I love these. I know many who would sign up for number 3.

Incorrect. You've mistakenly glanced at the calendar from Poseur U.

Free Riding - A guide to stealth riding close behind others on a MUP
Not Cool - An explanation of why all those stupid expensive bikes are a waste of money for everyone and how to express your outrage.
Road Repair - How to tell if a stranger might have a flat repair kit and how to get them to fix your flat for free.

That Fred thing is interesting, me I have a mirror on my CF bike.... I am partialy deaf, have to rely on it, that makes me a Fred, even though many would benefit from a mirror, they would rather turn and weave all over to see whats behind, some moron almost scratched my Corvette, Morons, freds and Cyclists, a great mix! what are you?

Damm! This is the second time in this thread that I may be all three.

I could teach this class. Not only have I done this for 2 of my own bikes, I've done it for 2 other people.

Think wind resistance. Brought to you by the same folks who gave us aerodynamic seat posts.:rolleyes: A second and to me more compelling reason is that it is easier to clean up road rash on hairless legs. There is a reason why surgeons shave you before they cut you open.

There are a number of courses in this thread where I've earned a Ph.D.

Think of "fraternity membership" - being a member of that sacred club of elite cyclists. Similar to hazing but not quite as bad. Showing the world that you are a "real" cyclist.

Seriously - how many of us actually have road rash where the shaving of the legs really makes a difference?

Advanced course work in recumbents...

The aerobelly, myth or mythological

Is Spandex really necessary? (A course of exploring the benefits of riding naked)

WHAT, that's not how they go. They do on my overalls.

Any one cover "The fine art of camuflaging your bike as a rat" yet? I have some fine riding bikes that look... sad. But no one ever steals them.

OMG

How do you propose to handle the quality control issues?
