LOL.
I’m kinda pumped that it’s raining because it feels good to cruise around unfazed with some full fenders and a nice rain shell.

swerves on recumbent trying to ride up hill in wind with giant NO WAR FOR OIL sign on back
^^ you’re obviously not fred enough for the giant aero fairing on the front of your recumbent to keep you from needing to swerve.

No lycra, no vest, rides in “regular pants” rain shell or wool sweeter.

This is what my bikes are going to look like when I’m 75.
The freddest thing I do (what I catch shit for all the time) is ride with BMX pedals. But fuck it. I like them and I still have pretty alright spin.
Oh and also bullmoose bars higher than my saddle. The guys at the roadie shop downtown (Spokesman) give me weird looks every time I walk in with the Stumpjumper.
Forgot to mention I use bar/saddle bags, full fenders and have a beard as well.

They have no love for an '83 Stumpjumper? WTF are you doing in working in a shop if you have no love?!
ugh, i forgot that i have a jersey that is basically hi-vis yellow too.
How do you forget you own that shit.
Commuter. Fenders, lights, panniers, ride to and from work in slacks, shirt & tie. Yup.

They give me a lot of attitude. Some people have better experiences there than I do.
