What kind of cyclist are you?

[Fnaar]

I'm like a roadie but slower and with cheaper kit.

That would appear to be me, too... and without any interest in actually racing, per se.

 

[661-Pete]

Me too - "none of the above". Seems to be the consensus.

 

[tyred]

I don't fit any of the categories

 

[psmiffy]

Outcast - like the vast majority of cyclists?

 

[Keith Oates]

I'm a cyclist who will ride any form of bike but I get the most fun out of riding my roadies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[rich p]

I just do my own thing, I don't fit in any boxes

Bloody hell, numbnuts, I'd ask for a refund as you've already paid for your box.

 

[Flying_Monkey]

I'm a cyclist. I don't fit the categories. The only two I couldn't be are The Messenger and The Beautiful Godzilla. And The Observer has really lost it if it's reprinting blog posts now...

 

[swee'pea99]

Another 'none of the above' here.

 

[theloafer]

an other heinz 57 here... ride a tourer,+road bike +and just got a mountian bike..

 

[Moodyman]

They've missed out the utility / commuting cyclists.

 

[ComedyPilot]

Definitely a roadie as I look down and sneer at mtb-ers and the rest of the velonation riff-raff.

I even found I was sneering at myself the other day as I caught a glimpse of my reflection in a shop window when on the town bike.

 

[Arch]

Another mongrel here, The Contraption Captain and Righteous Cyclist.

Me too, although I don't have a beard, and I don't think I'm all that righteous - the righteous category covers commuting and utility, although of course you can't sneer so easily at someone who's just getting on and cycling because they like to.

I thought you were a 'Oneforthe roadie' Rich...and you 3BM.

Me? Purist. Only read the recipe section of the Guardian...don't understand the rest.

 

[Davidc]

Another "None of the Above" here.

'Middle aged and slow' would probably fit me. They need to add Pootler and Utility to their list for me.

Can't be Righteous 'cos I also drive a car and certainly don't think cycling makes any difference to anything much except my waistline, Beautiful Godzilla is out, and none of the rest of their categories fit either.

I wait with interest to see a picture of Arch after she stops shaving for a while! (Don't mean it really).

 

[asterix]

Me? Same category as tyred.
