Some unanswered questions:

Is it sound to carry a gun when cycling?
Do fat slow people deserve an expensive lightweight bicycle?
What is the best way to clean and lube a chain?
Is it OK to wear a team kit?
When faced to angry drivers, is it best to ignore them or confront them macho style?

According to bike forums, it is -
1. Completely and totally safe to bike without studs in the winter where there's plenty of snow and ice.
2. Completely and totally not safe to bike without studs in the winter where there's plenty of snow and ice.

And I think you forgot "Should I wear a helmet? How much safer will it make me?" :-D

I have learned that no matter how many miles I ride, I'm not riding nearly as much as I should.

Also, unless you weigh less than your bike, you're too heavy for this sport.

What's your problem? I just said he should give credit that those weren't his words, not that he shouldn't have posted it.

Baby wipes.

I really didn't know you could toss your cycling gloves in the washing machine. I had always bought new ones every six months because they got so rank. Now they last a lot longer.

Don't forget, PB is just a half step above BD.

Gloves, yes. Helmet, no.

I learned that if a guy shaves his legs that not only does he look so "pro" but he feels pretty, too.

I learned that if he shaves his junk at the same time, razor burn sucks. Oh wait, I didn't learn that here...
