You Might Be a Cyclist If...

[miamibiker]

When you pay over $300 for a pair of cycling shoes but buy your everyday shoes at DSW on the clearance rack. And then you consider wearing your Sidi's out for other activities just b/c they are that sexy.
And when your bibs cost you more than any suit in your closet.......hello Assos.

There are bike tracks through your kitchen, dining room, living room and hallway, since your bike "sleeps" in your bedroom. And you really don't care.
(Or is it just me with my negligible housekeeping skills? )

Meemsie--I'm cringing over here and trying not to think about that...

When you find yourself carrying cell phone, cards and cash in a ziplock bag from that morning's ride.

When you think about spending 90 bucks on yet another pair of cycling shoes but won't spend 40 on a pair of heels despite having no more wearable heels left.

When you have to stop cycling for a couple of weeks and realize that without cycling, you suddenly have so many hours of emptiness to fill and don't know what to do with them...

When you have tan lines at mid-thigh, your hands are lighter than your arms and you have raccoon eyes.

And if your bald like my husband...you have stripes on the top of your head.

... if you're more likely to run into friends at the bike shop than at the pub.

When, even though suffering the chemo ickies, you drag yourself to the backyard to fix a flat tire so your bike won't have to suffer.

When you are tired, the knees are tender, and you KNOW you need to take the day off tomorrow and do something other than riding because you have ridden the last 4 days in a row...then you look at those two bikes that hang out in the living room and want to go out anyway...

HA! That's me. You just talked me into going riding instead of lifting at the gym. My brain thanks you & my legs curse you!
