Cycling Memes and Jokes

I maintain that I should have raced “expert” class last year at my local XC series. I would have won the overall even if I got last in every race. Not one person in that class raced all the races and there were so few in each race that I would have scored insane points even if I got last (and I surely would have placed last).

Edit: OH NO, I’VE ALREADY SAID THIS!!! And it’s even a meme!

And it still counts👍

Now this is a great year in review!


Probably was posted last year too. Nobody has time to go look back that far

I just got reminded about this one:

:zipper_mouth_face:

I barely use Insta, but I feel like it understands me (almost 51 yo).

Similar from a bike trails site, The Shin Dig:

Which brings us back to…

This gets a boo from me.

As a famous person once said: “why so serious?”

I would say I’m in the “Awesome” box. Tried to enter the “Even Better” but the wife hated it. Hopefully won’t get to “Yay” any time soon.

I’ve managed to make it to ‘Yay, Awesome!’ :rofl:

There need to be another box. My wife rides, and now my two daughters ride with us. Best domestiques i could ask for.

Think of it as a one-man heckle from the audience, that’s all.

Using misogyny as the foundation for a light joke without context isn’t my taste, and I don’t think it’s welcoming to the forum community.

Throw this one on SNL where you can see the man is a blithering idiot who doesn’t understand decisions so the jokes on him, then sure, it’s a joke. I see the set up, assumption, and shatter. Don’t know what the punchline would be, I’m not a writer.

Otherwise, the joke and following reply come across as “Its the woman’s fault but it’s just a joke, so lighten up.”

Just a little boo from stage right.

Agree. Sexism in jest is still sexism. Friends don’t let friends be sexist

Interesting. Woman here who didn’t read it as sexist at all. Could easily swap the man and woman with the same results. My reading was more like start riding → get more bikes → find partner who rides → start a family → no more riding

Luckily husband and I stopped at even better so we’re all set :wink:
