Retro-grouch (n.) someone who crabbily holds onto old stuff instead of embracing the new.
Or, in my case, wears wool, sits on leather, rides lugged steel, uses friction bar-end shifters, and carries whonkin' big canvas saddlebags.

OK, OK, OK ! I'll start training, um, tomorrow.
OMG what have I done.
But I take solace in the fact that crazier things have been done in the pursuit of cool cycling clothing.

Jo, have you ever noticed that Cheerleader Cali also thinks anything below 70 degrees is abusive?

i just like to give everyone what i've always gotten from my cheerleader... the "you can do it" attitude.... i've never been told "you can't do that ride" (meaning abilities) even as a newbie! so i try to pass that on!

OK, Cali, you're off the hook.
I on the other hand wilt in temperatures above 80 degrees.
I also melt in the rain, though (cue the Wicked Witch theme song)
