There’s a ton of unwritten rules within cycling that anyone riding more than a few years will start to pick up, so long as they don’t ride only on Sunday down a wide boulevard.
Many of those rules are now written in stone, and can be found here: Velominati Rules of Cycling
I’ve broken many of those, but I also adher to some of them. Examples:
Rule #25 // The bikes on top of your car should be worth more than the car.
Yup, this is true, of all my bikes.
I also do this.
This will change. I can’t afford, or need, a full on TT bike but I do want aerobars.
Usually I do this, but there’s some things I still buy online.
So where do you stand on some of these rules? Read the list here and comment below!

LOVE “The Rules”! So unspoken, yet so true! I would say that I follow #36 & consequently #39 (re: eyewear), I am an habitual breaker of rule #7 because, well, bikini season needs to be less hilarious for on-lookers & I do enjoy the mini-skirt (which always looks best without the cycling short tanlines). I am a HUGE believer in rule #20 (one should not take breaks or walk for god’s sake, but suck it up, & ride the bike). #5 should be henceforth known as The Johnny Hoogerland Rule. #thatisall
Haha, love #5. I have the Hoogerland Shirt from Stomachofanger as well.
As far as tan lines, having red hair means I don’t tan, so there’s only so much I have to worry about.
Thanks for the comment!
The “rules” are, for the most part, one of the most douchebaggy things on the internet.
