- Q. What is a cyclist?
- A. Anyone who rides a bike.
- Q. Is it really that simple?
- A. Yes. Of course, some people want to make it more complicated, but it really is that simple.
- Q. But aren’t there “bike tribes”?
- A. A few years ago there was a trend for talking about “bike tribes”. It was always bullshit and now it’s just passé.
- Q. Seriously though, what can I do to be a “real” cyclist?
- A. OK, if you insist, here are the Treadly and Me Criteria for Real Cyclists:
To be a Real Cyclist, you must:
- ride whatever you like
- ride wherever you like
- ride for whatever reason you like
- ride at what speed you like
- ride as far as you like
- ride with whomever you like
- wear whatever you like
You should add 8. Let other cyclists ride whatever they like ride wherever they like ride for whatever reason they like ride at what speed they like ride as far as they like ride with whomever they like wear whatever they like
