If it bothers you that people do that, stay away from the Road Forum on Bike Forums. Otherwise, just ride your bike and don't waste your time and energy worrying about what other people think.

I was thinking the same thing. I don't think I'd last long in a crowd like that, but I have this weird thing about hanging out with jerks...
aw, who I'm I kidding they'd never hang out with a Fred like me anyway. I have *fun* ringing my old-fashion bike bell (with a neon pink dinosaur on it) when my local hockey team wins a game. That probably isn't cool.
My favorite thing about my trek 7.3fx with it's flat handlebars is the dingy bell. I love that bell. I suppose that makes me a fred. I've done 7 centuries on that bike.
Better Fred then dead!!!!!
That should have read:
"Better Fred THAN dead"
It would truly suck to be Fred and then die.
