Are we crazy? Does riding bicycles really make us weird? It seems that it might!

#1. I don\’t have a car; but if I did, my desire to ride my bicycle might easily lead me to letting that car become a \”beater\”. And my bicycle didn\’t cost nearly $10,000!

#2. Without a car anyway, the only chamois I have is the cycling-shorts kind. Cycling shorts, incidentally, are well worth the cost. They\’re much more comfortable on a long ride than regular shorts.

#3. I don\’t carry much in my jersey pockets. Does that mean it\’s not a cargo jersey? On long rides I\’m wearing the Camel-Bak; and it covers up the pockets.

#4. So far I don\’t race imaginary friends, but I do sometimes bypass home so I can get my weekly long-ride mileage up to the day\’s goal.

#5. Especially when it\’s been hot for at least a few weeks, my cyclist tan starts to show. My arms are several shades darker than my hands, and I can see clear demarcation lines on my legs.

#6. Luckily I haven\’t had such an accident yet; but if I ever do, I bet that\’s exactly what I\’d say!

#7. T-rex? I wouldn\’t say that I look like one; but I do have naturally tiny arms.

#8. Oh, leg warmers! This time of year I need them almost daily, and I wish I had some heavier ones!

#9. Maybe I shouldn\’t get myself started on this. I\’m not the one to talk about weight control when I need to shed about 15 pounds!

#10. I haven\’t reached this point yet, but maybe some night it will come.

Are we crazy? Maybe so!
