Ok, just trying to clarify it a little. I don't think many here do it cause they have to, or just for the hell of it to kill time. Most people, IMO, like me, or you, do it because they love it, and it is a part of their lives (big part in my case). For me, I keep my bike in front of my bed so I can stare at it morning and night. I just simply love cycling and everything there is about it.
I agree that it's a disease, but one that I love to carry.
Although I guess you're not a REAL cyclist, until you race bike for bike and give 30 minute head starts...
