You know your obbessed with cycling when ...

[twentysix by twentyfive]

You flick your middle finger to change gear when driving the car.

You lean going into a bend when driving the car.

You accelerate for every 30 sign while driving the car.

Would you like to talk about it?

when you dream what i did last night.....I was fixing a puncture in a cornfield

 

[Toshiba Boy]

You bore your family silly when driving to your holiday destination, by saying such things as, "..ahh, I remember riding up this hill in 1985 etc., etc..."

You find yourself waving to roadies when you're driving the car!! I've done this a couple of times lately when my wife has been in the car and she said 'Why the feck are you waving to those cyclists?'

Craning your neck to see what bike is on the roof rack as you go past.

You lean going into a bend when driving the car.

Better yet, while walking, you still drop your elbow to glance over your shoulder.

I always like to think I could get air in my car going over the little humpback bridge near my house... and as for the craning of the neck, yes, other people's bikes they are riding, or have on their cars are always a target...but there's nothing nicer than a load of nicely toned bums in lycra to oggle at if I happen to drive past, or observe, a peloton of any kind...

Crumbs - I've kept my best bike in the bedroom because the garage roof was leaking. But you've taken the "sleeping with your bike thing" to a whole new level I suppose that is what "bonking" means in cycling parlance then

 

[cyclebum]

As a newbie, too much of this is becoming frightningly familiar
What about driving along a good (or challenging) road and wishing I was on my bike. Also being stuck in holiday traffic while heading down to Hampshire with the bike on the back for an off road course, and being sorely tempted to dumb the car and cycle the rest of the way. (4 hour journey that took me 7)
Lying in bed on a friday night and planning a route for the next day (or is this just a sign of old age?

When some mates are discussing who bonked on saturday night and you ask "Why didn't you eat and drink little and often?" and "How many miles was the loop?"

when both your bikes each cost more than your car.
