Yeah: what about women trying to convince boyfriends and husbands that cycling is not only good, but worthy of total obsession.
I have managed to get my seven year old son hooked (poster of Lance and Bradley on the bedroom wall, watching the fixie guys doing tricks in the park, trip to what he calls the Turd of Britain, cap from lookmumnohands...) Only problem is that he now wants four bikes ... n+1 ... I am saving up ...
My husband likes cycling and we have happy family trips. But, he just isn't going to ever love it, like burning love, like you pat your bike every time you pass it in the hallway.
**I think he suspects I love my bike more than him... **
