Thanks ladies... kind've what I was wondering
This historically has been a male-dominated sport --- dare I ask if this is an example of how men will not change terminolgy to something logical and let jargon evolve?

Courage does not always roar. Sometimes, it is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying,
"I will try again tomorrow".

I don't know... maybe?
I would have called them "bike bindings" due to the resemblace to "ski bindings", but I tend to be way practical sometimes... really, sometimes I am.
spazzno regrets!

Why do we drive on the parkway and park in the driveway?
Ever notice that 'what the hell' always seems to be the best decision?

parkway=street. In my old home state of Indiana, the streets named "parkway" usually had center medians with grass on them and ran by the edge of the river but I can't speak for the other 48, New Mexico is a desert state and very old Spanish stettlements here so everything has Spanish names.
Gotta love the differences nah?
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"

LOL, I have an acquaintance who thought they worked like that too... they'd automatically release in the event of a wipe out... NOT....
