You know you're a cyclist when you buy a house and your main concerns are 1: designing the herb garden around the pump track, 2: where the shopping trolley bike will be parked, and 3: figuring out which trophies will live in the loungeroom or the bike cave.

When there is 7 push bikes ranging from xc to all mountain and two roadies, 4 motorbikes (the weekend warrior, the commuter, the motard and the dirtbike) and a full workshop for the aforementioned bikes so the car has to live outside.

All your clothes are worn out/threadbare/holey, your shoes have holes, but you're wearing new riding gear worth a month or twos rent.
Similar to Violet's post, only despite not owning anything remotely resembling cheap lingeries I don't own any triathlon bras either.

Pretty exciting way to explain people got nothing and still represent them as lord. Some of friends do that so I will make your comment on them :)

It's likely that I will move to a smaller town/city up north to work when I finish my degree, and the quality and quantity of DH tracks has turned out to actually be a serious consideration for me.
I guess that's a pretty solid "You know you're a cyclist when..."
Nobody wants to give up their passion and hobby, and as much as I want to follow where the work is, I cant put myself in a place where I won't be able to do what I love.

Cairns, Townsville and Bundaberg are on my list of potential places.
I have connections in Bundaberg, but as far as I know, there is no DH scene there in the slightest - and that's downright unfair!

Decisions, decisions.

Looking for a holiday home and only two concerns are a) quality of local trails, and b) some way to convince the wife that it was her idea not mine.
