What are your cycling affirmations?

The Zen of the spin . . .

and that feeling when you're about to fall over and you would be foaming at the mouth if you had any fluid left- psyclepath calls that seeing Dead Elvis- he's there in all his glory, spandex and glitter, saying 'come on, darlin', come to the light

On the commute into work yesterday, my mantra for the first part of the ride was "holy crap it's cold, ride faster" until I got to where the bike trail runs under the interstate - then it changed to "I'm not on the freeway" (sing to nanny-nanny boo-boo)!

When I'm just beat from being in the saddle for 6-7 hours, I just tell myself sitting in the saddle is just the same as if I were sitting in an easy chair at home - so any coasting is pure recovery and easy, and then I manage to pedal again after my rest in my virtual sofa!
