Pros aside, I think one of the reasons I have fallen in love with cycling after generally despising sports my whole life is the quality of the people in it. Even when I was an extremely overweight woman struggling on a spin bike at the gym or my hybrid on the road, so many accomplished cyclists took the time to give me a word of encouragement or a helpful tip. To me, that's CLASS. And believe me, all of you here at TE are included!!
