    How many wrecks do I need to qualify as a real cyclist?

    You've arrived.
    ... On a road bike, flipping off a car is all that's required.

    Is there an expiration date on that? The story I tell the kids was
    one from two bike lives back, when I was working up to be a bike
    commuter. I was out on a morning warmup ride (on a Schwinn 3-speed;
    couldn't afford anything fancier then, ~1978) when I glanced over my
    shoulder to track a girl in a swimsuit. Next thing I was on the
    trunk of a parked car, having bent the fork enough that the fender
    wouldn't clear the frame. Always stay with the main task...

    Heh. I said flipping /off/ a car, not /over/!
