Seeing as how Lance Armstrong is once again competing in the Tour De France, I figured I would discuss one of my biggest pet peeves in the world: people that don't competitively race bikes, but still wear the gear as if they did. Whenever I am home, I drive down one road that has a bike path instead of a shoulder fairly often. This path is commonly taken by teenagers who are too young to drive yet, normal people biking recreationally or for exercise, and the overzealous assholes that spend far too much money on the gear and not enough time on actually cycling. They will at all times be wearing their Livestrong gear (which I do actually support, I'm just making an observation), bike shorts, and a helmet. Clearly thinking they are participating in some form of an important race, they will be huffing and puffing their way into "shape".
