Ok, I really really really didn't mean to set off that discussion of "what is a cyclist" It was meant rhetorically. I though it was clear when I listed the definition from websters that anyone who cycles is a cyclist. My point was we that we shouldn't bother categorizing and giving a name to what we are and what we do. We are all on this board becuase we share an interest in riding bicycles. We are all different levels of experience and invovlement, but all with one purpose. Please try to remember this and lets get back to discussing the relevant things like how far we've ridden today or how many scars we have from falling with clipless pedals or if we prefer sports beans over bananas...
