Yeah, I speak a super sexy combination of Mexican slang Spanish and awful highschool textbook Spanish.

I have to agree with that. The only time I've seen montar a bicicleta was in a text book that used vosotros form. And nobody in the Western Hemisphere does that.

You could also say me encanta, which has a slightly different connotation. Maybe it sounds a little feminina?

When I think about it, 99% of the Spanish I speak day to day is: "Que pasa buey?"

r. i'm colombian and some of ur responses are def. something "white" people would say. the responses def sound straight out of some American webster.

me gusta anadar en my bicicleta en el velodrom. but def. countries will say def things. so, use either of translations. a dominican would say something else, cubans, p.ricans.

What's happening Ox? :roflmao:

What's worse, I'm only half white, half pocho.

I grew up in SoCal and never heard 'montar' for bicicleta riding for what it's worth. Always andar.

where'd you grow up, nate? for some reason i thought you were haffu & from tokyo.

oral quiz in my intro to spanish class.. prof asked what sports do you like, everyone said football, baseball, soccer cus those are in the textbook... track cycling or cycling in general isn't covered in the textbook.

ciclismo de corrido?

I know all I need to know: Para! NO! PARA! NO! Matir tu cuerpo a pistola!

When your professor askes you how you learned the vocab, are you going to own up and say, "I asked the bikeforums."?

This dude is totally trying to bag a latin lady on AOL instant messenger. Too bad he doesn't realize that his little lady friend is actually that dude from Dateline.

Utilicé uno de esos traductores en línea y me dio esta mierda, éste no parece tan malo aunque.


¿Cualquiera sabe cómo decir "quiero cycling de vestigio" o "quiero competir bicicletas en un vestigio"?

Haha, maybe that's because I'm white and I happen to speak "white" European Spanish.

Incidentally I just spent a month in Mexico this fall but didn't notice the andar thing... I did pick up some other fun Mexican vocab tho. Some of the road signs are pure poerty, too:)

me gusta guiar mi bicicleta en la pista de carrera

MmmMmhhhhhhhhmmmmmmm. A colloquialism. Buey = Ox with no testicles. An insult, that is used in an endearing way among friends. Also, my favorite word.
