How To Be A Road Biker
|
It is funny because so much of it is true....
|
It's like you're reading my mind, man.
|
Nice. I shared on facebook.
|
The only thing they left out was the use of power meters by people who can't generate over 200W (mea culpa).
|
excellent

Sorry to be a stickler on this but (a pet peeve) I won't likely ever be a road "biker." "Bikers" hang out in biker bars, have "bike" rallies, and hold an annual event in Sturgis. That's not my thing.
More to the point (perhaps) is that all groups or distinctive activities have their own traits and foibles, and it's not difficult to find the humor in that. This is hardly the first effort to lampoon people who ride road bikes. |

This is hardly the first effort to lampoon people who ride road bikes. I'm still not sure it wasn't meant to have been a genuine documentary. ;) |

I love a good laugh at myself, ourselves and such serious, obsessive dedication to the activity. That's just ASKING for it. :lol:

I may write them and ask them to take on recumbent riders next. Talk about a target rich environment.

I really don't care what you call me, that I'm still here to be called anything is a stomp down miracle so its all good. Nice vid, too.

I saw this on one of my other bike forums. Pretty funny and very true. Don't show this to the 41 group or we'll get hate mail forever.
