At least you didn't cut your steerer after slamming the stem in the first place.

When I first got a set of Speedplay Frogs back in 07 I too went to the park on a grassy area (after watching a You Tube video) thinking I was going to fall, even put the pedals on a beat up MTB so I wouldn't damage the new bike when I fell. Those pedals were the easiest to get into and out of then I had ever thought they would be like. I have yet to fall due to not being able to get out of them and that's after using toe clips for 35 years!

I ran a stop sign as a pedestrian once. ONCE!!!

I've never had a flat and will be in trouble when I do.

Good point! I never burned my bridges. In fact I didn't slam it all the way, I kept one of the spacers in there so I was already hedging my bets.

After getting Gatorskins I've gotten like 1 flat in 3,000 miles, but I had gotten so many before that that I keep 2 CO2 cartridges, a spare tire, a patch kit, and a mini-pump with me at all times. I could be fixing every person with a flat that I ride by on the road. Maybe I should start doing that and charging, make some spare cash ;)

I miss CSI: Miami and sometimes remove my glasses like Horatio Caine. Then I stand sideways at the bike shop, never make eye contact and deliver gravely appropriate one-liners.

I love Adam Carolla's podcast, and I feel really guilty about it because he uses too much bad language.

I too slammed, my stem and accidentally ripped out the starred nut lbs laughed at me

I like Nashbar shorts.
I always wear a cycling underliner (with all shorts - not just Nashbar's).

So ... basically ... your confession is ... that your ass feels incredible?

I can't ride without being in full kit, or on the road.

yes.

Another confession: I ride my bike so that I can pwn others and pray they are a member on bikesforums.

Also: to pwn others on better bikes.

I listen to ICP when riding.

I stop at red lights on my commute at 5:30 a.m. If the light has no sensor, I go the long way around where it is green.

- Every pair of trousers I own has black grease stains at the right ankle because i cant be bothered to roll the leg up or wear trouser clips

- I try and trackstand at every possible opportunity and frequently loose balance

- I keep snapping plastic gear levers on campag brakes

- I sometimes forget to carry a lock, a few times I have left my road bike parked outside a supermarket unsecured

- I will happily slow traffic down by riding in the center or outside of the lane if I think the road has potholes, puddles, patches of detritus, or an uneven surface that could disrupt my rhythm

- I almost definitely pronounce Cervelo incorrectly

- Last week i went past a cyclist with a mechanical problem at the side of the road & I didn't stop to see if I could help

- I wash my bikes about once every 3 years

- I have a favourite pair of cycling socks which I rarely wear because I don't want them to wear out

- My approach to replacing bike components is usually to buy whatever seems like a good deal, whether its compatible is secondary

- I think I am almost as good as the pro cyclists I see on TV, just marginally slower

- I have spokey dokes on one of my road bikes

- I think cycling above 20/25mph is dangerous

- I ride with clipless pedals but i just wear normal trainers

- I spent a few minutes thinking about how much weight I could save if I shaved my beard

- I have never climbed above around 500 feet above sea level

- I use my drops so rarely i could save money on handlebar tape by only wrapping the top of the handlebar

- I edited this post several times to correct spelling, add bulletpoints, and line up each sentence

Guy above has a few issues!
 

only kidding!



my confession is I ran a red light into oncoming traffic, not my fult though! brakes weren't working.

oh and if I have no one to ride wit I find it very easy to find a reason not to go out.

I feel very annoyed with people who ride on pavements and want to kixck them off there bikes (kids excluded there allowed on pavements I'm talking about adults only), I refuse to do it unless its a marked bike lane / mup / road is too dangours.


I sometimes don't wear my helmet if only going into town.

oh and I'm in love with canondales paint schemes on there 2014 synapse range and of that's how they paint all there bikes I'm soon gonna buy a caaondale! one that's well overkill for my skill and I don't need but am going to buy it anyways when I have the money! CURSE YOU CAAD!!

so I guess I shop like a women! I go in and don't look at all the specs first I go for what catches my eye then if the specs meet I'd buy it, but I won't buy it no matter how good it ois if it doesn't look good to me first! lol.

I'm happy Art Bell is back on talk radio!!!

I rode in my first cyclocross race and I placed last . . . and 2 laps behind.

I wear jerseys because I'm one of the few cyclists who looks damn good in one, all other cyclists
are mostly poseurs.

I confess that I didn't read all of this post.

Try again. It's lose.

Loser.

ouch burned!

I also hate red lights at night when the roads are clear on any cars wtf!
