You Know You Are A Cyclist When.....

 

1) You put on your jeans and they already have the right leg rolled up.

 

2) You do laundry when you don't have any more clean bike shorts.

When your friends on facebook think your longboard is just another type of bike you like riding and feeling all tribal with carving those waves of concrete.

When your SO tells you that you MAY NOT aquire any more bikes until you at least get rid of one of the ones you have first.  You know it is really bad when they don't trust you to the point where they insist that not only must you get rid of bikes first but the demand has increased to a 2/1 ratio or greater.

 

You start hiding bikes in the back of the garage, at friends houses, disassembled n parts up in the attic...

Checking out the girl in Chipotle isn't complete until you can see if her shoes clip in.

You love hearing the sound of someone (including yourself) clipping in or out.

Your commute to and from work is the best part of your day (did someone already say that?)

Your heart rate goes up when you start driving up a long hill.

- you dont even bother to clean the grease chain patterns off your leg anymore, or better yet, you have a permanent tattoo of them

 

- you carry at least 10 extra items in your bag related to 'on the road bike maintenance' and 'night time riding'

 

- you realize you've paid more for your bike clothes in sum total then your work clothes

 

- you take a long ride and wind up waving to at least five other cyclists you know

 

- youve become friendly with at least 2 or 3 bike mechanics

Not all day but I usually get the hint when people keep looking at my ankles.

13) You walk around the office with reflective pant leg straps on your ankles all day. (I do this quite often and no one bothers to tell me).
