  2. Should be more than 35 MPH on a flat road...

    i wasn't so sure whether to go for the 25 or 35, but you're right.

  4. Most co-ordinated people could get a bike going 40km/h...most could pass someone up a hill providing they were slower. I dont ride the same route everyday because I have different needs for my training, sherryl crow is ugly and old. If you are playing basketball and not braking a sweat you aren't working hard enough...its a tough sport, I hate it though 😎 . I drink and eat fatty stuff because I ride +500km's a week so I dont put on weight anyway...I dont know the guys at my LBS because I order off probikekit for most things and have learnt to fix my own bike. Climbed a hill thats more than 2 miles long? pfft WHO CANT??? I dont eat ice cream because it gives me brain freezes and ouchy teeth not because its fatty or sugary. I only have one pic of lance that hangs in my bedroom...BTW whats with the snot thing? is it supposed to offend cyclists.

    hate to sound like a troll but thats a pretty strange looking list

  5. I have gone more than 35, sorry don't like Crowe. How come it need be pictures of Lance? I climb constantly where I live,no choice.
    I also misread the one requirement by thinking it said eat a cheerleader getting ready for a bikini contest. Does that get me any points?

    In season I eat more like a sumo wrestler getting ready for a bikini contest.

  7. Funny stuff...been there done all of that...and back to starting from scratch.

    List brought back some memories though 🙂

    I agree on the 35mph...even that's being rather nice though ... I'd say 40mph 😉

    should be averaging 40 mph on a mountain bike going up alpe d'huez...

    ya bunch of poofs.

  10. The hill climbing bit should be at least 10 miles and 6%.

  12. I am a real cyclist because I actually ride my bike, instead of trying to come up with stupid reasons to call myself a "real cyclist."
