I"m reading all of this and all I can think of is that saying...
"Opinions are like belly buttons. Everybody's got one."
Yeah...it's a little Forrest Gump-ish, but hey. Get's the point across.
And PLEASE....don't start a "what is a cyclist" debate!!!
It's like asking - again - "How come that person on the bike (dare I say "cyclist"?) didn't wave at me when I waved first? Is he/she an elistist snob or something??"

I agree, too. We're all cyclists - that's why we're here. We all ride bikes whether it's for commuting, exercise, competition, or whatever.
I think sportsmanship is always important in sports. Winning without gloating and losing without being a "sore loser" make all sports more fun. It keeps everyone in the "circle." Same with not having to define/qualify a person to be a "cyclist." Why go there?
