You know you're addicted to this cycling thing when...

You fly all the way from L.A. to Minneapolis for your niece's wedding, but your main preoccupation is checking out the bikers and bike paths in beautiful Minneapolis.

You have become a dopplar radar specialist, and people consult you on weekend weather.

You wonder whether the salad bar will be enough to fuel your ride home.

You stop washing off your chain tattoo.

I am such the 'dopplar radar specialist', especially in my office. If someone just mentions weather, I'm all over it. Plus I have a weather forecaster on my kitchen table which I plan my day by. Fortunately it's mostly right.

Whenever I travel to a new city or town, I seek out the local bike shop and make a point to visit it. I'm always looking for something unique or something I haven't come across in my LBS.

When having ordered yet another little pressie for your bike.....you have it delivered to your address at work so that you can sneak it in your backpack and then home

If only to avoid the 'how many pairs of shorts does a girl need?' or 'more stuff for your bike?' questions when you get back home after your (bike, of course) commute to be handed yet another parcel that arrived earlier that day

When you're driving, you inadvertently start forming pacelines with the other cars on the road before realizing it's not the smartest thing to do in a car...

When you yearn for every destination where you've lived or visited for a few days, that there is a bike for oneself..to explore.

When you no longer know nor care about gas prices. I stopped knowing 25 yrs. ago. Or quarter of a century.

When your next home must be close to cycling infrastructure ....within 10-15 min...because your previous homes were located to such facilities.
