This is sparked from a conversation I had with a roadie the other night. I was the lone mountain biker for one of my clubs' hill training rides, and we were talking about why we ride.

One comment was " so I can look good in a bikini". Said in total seriousness. I couldn't help but think that was an odd thing to say.

I ride for fun, fitness & exercise, and mental health.

Why do you ride?
