Subject: Bike related (funny or serious) quotes? What have you got?
I'm in the process of graffiti'ing one of my bikes... I've got half of it pretty well covered but am running out of good quotes to tag it with. So what have you got? Preferably something bike or racing related...funny so long as it isn't too crude. I've got the bases like "shut up legs" and "it doesn't get easier" covered, so let your creativity shine

thanks, I will post pictures when it's finished

Keep the rubber side down (stolen from my motorcycle circles, but it works the same)

That ain't sweat running down my leg

These are a little more "literary", so maybe not what you're looking for, but here you go:

The bicycle is a curious vehicle. Its passenger is its engine.

When I see an adult on a bicycle, I do not despair for the future of the human race.

Get a bicycle. You will not regret it if you live.


I also always liked the Paul Sherwin-isms, "On the rivet" and "Dancing on the pedals".

Excellent job... and how prophetic it was given the era of cycling that the movie preceded.

Paul and Phil both used this a few times this TDF:  "he's riding like a scalded cat."

To the OP, you could modify to:  "rides like a scalded cat."

Okay, you probably won't put this on your bike but it's what I thought of when I saw the thread title: 

"Let me tell you what I think of bicycling. I think it has done more to emancipate women than anything else in the world. It gives women a feeling of freedom and self-reliance. I stand and rejoice every time I see a woman ride by on a wheel…the picture of free, untrammeled womanhood"

The one I heard several times from Sherwen this year - "Oh, he's in a spot of bother."

It's my RoadID.  It says "Please stop my Garmin".

"It never gets easier.  You just go faster."
