Why do I feel like it’s almost a racial conversation when I tell someone I’m a cyclist and they immeditate begin to tell me about how they hate it when cyclists do this or that?
It’s like telling your token black friend about how all blacks are crooks and drug addicts… and then realizing whom you’re speaking to, throw in a little “most blacks anyway” to, you know, make them feel better.

At the Westside Invite up in Seattle over the weekend, I volunteered and basically hung out. I did not do any of the races. I was chatting up one of the organizer’s financee who obviously thought I was a big dork.
Me: so yeah, I’m not racing since I’m nursing some soreness from my ride here.
Her: wait. you rode your bike here? From Portland?
Me: oh, yeah… does that make me cooler?
Her: yes, definitely.

OMG, yay! My friend and I were starving in Louisville, KY when were about to start a bike tour. Plenty of fast food open, but only drive-thru and bikes didn’t count. Lame.
