    It's also probably from the fact that he hosts a show that somewhat endorses negligent driver attitudes.

    Are you afraid?

    If Australia had strict liability they would be. Ultimately whatever cyclists do we will always be deemed 'at fault' by members of the public. If all of us were 'lit up like a carousel' I bet the blame would be that we were too 'distracting'. We can't win.

    Are you afraid?

    This is false equivalency it's laying blame on the cyclists rather than the motorists should should be aware of their surroundings. Maybe pedestrians should wear hi-viz on shared pathways as well?

    Celebrity cyclists

    Yes his weight threw me off a bit. But then apparently his other hobby is eating at all you can eat buffets so it makes perfect sense. Must be a beast on the flats. Jerry Seinfeld is another cyclists (owns a Pinarello) so I guess the green bike in the corridor was not just a meaningless...

    How bad do you want it?

    Are you afraid?

    Where were you riding? The inner suburbs are okay but outer Western/Southern suburbs are horrible- people throwing beer bottles and stuff. The Northern suburbs are pretty good to ride around since people in general are nicer there. If you have any problems regarding cycling infrastructure in...

    I was pretty surprised to hear Alexei Sayle (the father of alternate comedy) is an avid cyclist: http://www.guardian.co.uk/travel/video/2011/may/12/alexei-sayle-cycling-in-london Good to see he dislikes cycle lanes as much as I do. Robin Williams I think is another one.

    Rapha Continental & Greg Lemond.

    A great cyclist and it would seem a great man re-reading his biography on wikipedia. It also reminded me of what a snivelling **** Landis was to use his sexual abuse against him.

    How do you get up and cycle in the morning?

    The night before, plan your ride say to yourself want to reach such and such a point before -:--am (usually a couple of minutes earlier then you'd expect to take) then you'll do it.

    Are women less into cycling than men?

    Roadie tude generally comes from Type-As. Roadies generally can't relax and let go, so they are always trying to prove themselves- the whole need for pain thing etc. It's a lot of macho bs really. Uni students just see cycling as the cheapest and quickest way to get from Point A to Point B.

    Best TTers past or present?

    Are women less into cycling than men?

    Meh personality is overrated. There are a lot of sports where the best players (Federer for example) are boring but still women watch. I think it's more that - cycle races are long and technical hence 'boring' - lack of 'sex symbols'
