Roadies: the Daily Mail Reader of cycling

No, but, yeah, but, seriouslyz. All those shit 'just going out with some guys I work with in finance to Box Hill' excuses for looking at each others' budgiesmuggling antics and plastic 'ohh don't drop near a corner' bikes, on your cat 5 strava stages across the Waterloo bridge from your semi (ooher) in Daily Mail belt.

Love you!

Cycling is the new golf.

A great way to spoil a nice walk.

I'm going to go back to riding my hickory boneshaker.

0 cogs.

Fucking get it up youse, hipster fixeh skiddies with all your derailleur prejudices and anti-establishment posturing.

I'm gonna fit a steam engine to my sweet fixeh

I think I'll try and get that written on a merino cycling jersey for audax riding.

Or shall I put "BRAKE ARE DEATH" instead?

Christ, I can't keep up with Ben and his laser like focus on the zeitgeist- where are we now then, fixed cyclo-cross tandems whilst wearing ironic Italian cycling caps?

^Sooooooooo 2010

we are now back to being fixie militants

Fixie prix or die
4 lyfe

If Skully was just faster he would be the real original roadie.

Roadies are intolerant reactionaries? Who knew...

Methinks the budgiesmuggler protests too much.

Two years ago on a club ride in Germany I met two lovely men, more sixty then fifty.

Fast roadies, we went to the beer garden after the ride.

If the Mavic Roadie Cap fits ...

Does this thread have a point or should I merge it with all the other cycling 'clan' whinge threads?

Fucking cliquey cyclists >>>

Remember when we were all just 'cyclists?'

Merge, then the whingers can whine about that too.

I imagine just before DK pulls the plug on LFGSS Hippy will merge everything into one big thread.

Halleluhjah!

Methinks the budgiesmuggler protests too much.

Don't hate me because I'm pretty

Love you!

I don't work in finance.

Remember when we were all just 'cyclists?'

No. I hate being called a 'cyclist'. Like my choice of machine defines me.

Exactly, roadies are a clique.

Roadie isn't a bike, it's an expensive lifestyle choice.

Bullshit.

Are you saying you don't like roadies?

Aussie Roadies are the worst for budgie abuse, MTV says so.

But you're extremely quick to define (and denigrate) other people by their choice of machine.
