What's the hardest part of cycling?

I found out that the handlebars can be pretty hard when you come off as well.

Thanks for changing the title.
a) securing your bike - rarely leave the bike unattended and at home always in a locked garage
b) maintenance - I enjoy tinkering so not really a problem either
c) lights - Riding in the dark is quite exhilarating, especially with modern lights. The old ever ready lights were a little challenging, to get home before they ran out of life.
or something else??

So for me - something else.
When actually riding, weather, hills and wind all make it harder, but this is all part of cycling. I think the hardest part of cycling for me is when I have had a bit of a break, due to family/work commitments and the "week off", slips into two or three, then it is "month off" and then gets worse. Getting back into a routine after a longish break is the hardest thing for me.

Good luck with your project.
 
But none of those things are hard.
Dealing with the attitudes and perceptions of non cyclists is the hardest part for me.
Everything involved in the actual cycling is a pleasure for me.
