Your cycling room 101. Bin your dislikes, however irrational, in here.

Cyclists who take themselves seriously - the more serious the event, the more serious the cyclist is. I remember the first few clubs rides when I was totally ignored. Competitive cyclists on the road are rarely friendly. I thought it was supposed to be fun.

Yes, I often cycle without lights on so that my eyes can see a lot more when they are used to the dark.

Anyway, I find it curious that you don't say where in Italy you are from. Were you banished after commiting some sort of heinous Mature Cheddar Cheese related crime or something?? *

It's ok, I'm not going to tell anyone, and quite frankly, it can't be any worse than Dumbarton!

* - I know how much you lot take your food seriously!

Afternoon, you mad person! I have more lights on than Santa, the problem was the Green had no lights, it was a dark winter's night. Now I have better lights, but don't need them because it's summer

My parents used to move a lot, but I spent many years in Frascati (near Rome), a small village similar to Dumbarton. I am a kinda "rootless person" .... ruthless too

Well, Ciampino is not the airport, Fiumicino is

When I lived there, Ciampino was only a military airport, no civil flights. What, do you want an airport in Dumbarton?

I agree, which is why I refuse to wear the stuff!

I like the "below the knee shorts, t-shirt, hi viz vest, hillwalking boots" look ... helmet optional

If a*******s could fly then most of Dumbarton would be one giant airport!

You have obviously never seen some fit young rowers (not me) in it....
