    Or, as I did a few weeks ago, you bring the test drive vehicle home, park it in the garage, lay towels down in back so as not to dirty new car's carpet and put your bike in the back to see if it fits ok.

    All the lycra is dirty, so you wear the too big tops that make you look like you have something to hide OR all the nice loose gear is in wash so you squeeze into those old tops that look like your daughters or put on those knicks that clearly make your thighs feel like tourniquets, and look like sausage, rather than not ride.
    The bike hasnt been washed in so long( due to work or what ever) that its starting to resemble a organic life form, and you go out.
    You get saddle sores and wonder,( even though a veggie) does that steak in the pants thing really work like it did for that old Tour guy?
    You ride until you throw up and think, wow thats sick!!( as in 'cool').
    You judge other women's physiques, purely by of they would be good on the flats or a good climber.( My Husband thinks this is PRIME wierdness!)
    The sun galre is something like a solar flare, but you havent rode in ages- so MUST RIGHT NOW and the only way to avoid burning is to slap on enough zinc that you look like the Crow.

    You attempt to draft other vehicles on the highway.

    While riding shotgun you tell the driver "Clear" when they want to turn left.

    You check the hour to hour weather constantly to find out the conditions for your ride later.

    Underwear feels a bit 'odd'.

    Your friend posts pictures from her tri in August, and the first thing you do is look to see what kind of bike she has...and you haven't seen her in years.
