    It's a little secret you didn't know about us women. We're all closet Visigoths.

    You are right, if they just had a bike they would be much happier. And a cell phone without silly ring tones. I loved this!

    Did you catch the Birmingham Complaint Choir, and their line about cycling? (they were the top of the column on the right-hand side while I was watching the Helsinki Complaint Choir)

    Let's write the Cyclists Complaint Choir.
    It might last for hours.

    Here's a start. Someone else make it rhyme or put it in another language so it does rhyme!

    My bike is old
    Bike shops are expensive
    Motorists hog the road
    The edges are full of debris

    All I can find are right hand gloves
    Where are my left gloves?
    Lights aren't timed
    I forgot to unclip

    I want this bike.
    I want that bike.
    I want another bike.
    I want to ride my bike.
    Maybe if I buy new handlebars
    this bike lust will abate.

    Maybe not
    Mornings are perfect for a ride to work
    It's dark when I get off work.
    Every morning I think how perfect a ride would be.
    Every morning I envy those I see.
    Every night I think how dark it would be on the bike/ped overpass.
    When will the days get longer?

    My handlebars are too wide.
    I weave too much, side to side.
    There aren't enough bike paths.
    I'm always alone when I get flats.
    I think my bike weighs too much.
    Roadies ***** about grams and such.
    I'm always running over glass.
    I wish endo's landed me on my ***.

    I finally figured out my tampon string
    I just need to manage that cramping thing.
    Slick tires slide everywhere
    But knobbies are more weight than I can bear.
    I sometimes think I'll drown in rain
    But fenders are always such a pain.
    Those idiots can't see my lights
    Though half are tourists seeing the sights.

    Roads are clear after every storm
    but cluttered bike lanes are the norm.
    Why do I forget to unclip?
    I always land right on my hip!
    My old bike is used and worn
    but bike shops charge my firstborn.

    My loved ones call it an addiction
    But it's really a cycle predilection.
    They pester about my way of life
    Velocipede me, and my wife...

    Ohio is too hilly.
    Florida's too flat.
    Other riders drop me
    Because I'm slow and fat.

    I'm going through the menopause
    (A word with which nothing rhymes).
    Now I get my period only at
    The worst possible of times.

    bikes, bikes, yellow bikes, blue bikes
    big bikes little bikes. Orange bikes, mountain bikes,
    bikes with fenders, bikes with lights,
    bikes with funny handlebars. Bikes that have side cars,
    bikes that are made to go far, bikes that have chrome
    pieces, bikes that fit my nieces.
    Bikes with lugs, bikes with plugs, bikes that can dodge
    from bugs. Bikes for boys, bikes for girls, bikes with colors like
    blue pearl. Bikes from the 50's these are nifty; but so are those
    from the 70's, 40's and 60's.
    Bikes for summer, bikes for winter, bikes made of polymers of silver.
    There are so many bikes, ... and I can only ride them one at a time.

    for six tanks of gas you could have bought a bike.

    To the tune of Jingle Bells:

    Riding through the rain,
    My girly bits in pain,
    O’er the sand and glass,
    Hey driver, kiss my @ss!
    Dang I’ve got so fat,
    And shoot, another flat,
    If I survive this winter clime I’ll have to eat my hat!

    Refrain:

    Oh, Santa sucks, I need more bucks, to get me a rain bike!
    So I can ride these winter roads with no blood pressure spike!
    Santa sucks, I need more bucks, just want to see some sun!
    I need to get out of this rain or honestly, I’m done!

    That made me laugh, way too funny and just the way I feel. Thanks
