Uber Goober
I don't think they hit on my category. But wouldn't The Grey Wolf and the The Roadies be the same thing, pretty much?

Depending on the day, I'm a roadie or a commuter. However I just bought a beater bike from a Shopper Girl and Mother Earth cross. It came with a plastic flower on the basket.

Aww, this is why I appreciate Canada. Did you guys happen to catch a similar but much worse intentioned version of this posted from Denver?!
Anyway, it depends on what I'm doing. Roadie/winter guy/commuter guy

I posted this thread last July about the Bostonian species: "You are what you ride - a taxonomy of city bicyclists, from the Boston Globe 7-13-08"
I considered myself a hybrid between Armstrongus delusionus and Crisis mid-lifus (year-round commuter and occasional centurian).
