I live in NY, so my perception may be skewed, but are most "cyclists" wankers? I ride my bike becuase it affords me personal freedom, and an outlet for whatever stresss I may accumulate. I have no need to be the fastest man in the park, have the most expensive bike, or the perfectly coordinated outfit. The best ride I ever had was in the empty farmlands north of the city, not in a peleton.
I recently got scammed into a subscription for Bicycling magazine, and for me this somewhat typifies the cyclist culture, deification of professional cyclists and worship of gear. Anyway, I'd love to hear some shout outs from amateurs, becuase I know there are an infinitely larger numbers of "us" than there are of "them."
