There are hipsters in Portland?
As one who spends windless days in lycra, this is a favorite! Makes fun of hipsters and us roadies all at once!
Mountain biking? Isn't that the sport where you drive your bike up the hills?

"I got my seat raised to just the right height." That was too damn funny!!! 
People really chop their bars like that? Retarded.

San Francisco beat Portland in terms of manliness.
Seattle was the the highest ranked west coast city at #30.
Not good for either city in my opinion

Dude, I guess it's gonna be your job to man up and go swing dead cats at hipsters then! My experience in the short time I lived there was it was more PC than Bezerkeley. I feel for ya... now go have a latte! (I kid, I kid)
I live in the San Fran area these days (probably ranks 49). Way too many 'men' around here though...
(funny timing on SS's post!)

| Wait, can lycra be considered 'manly'? Doh! No wonder they keep winking at me...

I don't get it. Do they cut the bar to make it more falic to compensate for their super tight jeans?
Love that video. Been floating around for a while.

They cut their bars, remove the brakes, and convert to fixed gear cause they wish to express their individuality and disdain for all things that are "mainstream". kind of ironical huh cause more than any other group, the hipsters are like sheep just looking for the latest bandwagon.
How bout that worldcup series!.......

Oh, pink bikes.  They have those in my town, too....
I know a guy, a contractor, that got cut off in traffic a couple of times by a err "hipster" on a pink fix bike. Has a little temper.
As usual pink biker was riding with a few clones and a couple of manly brunettes.
The pink one was the worst though. Go figure.
After going through about three intersections with the guy and followers weaving all around and blocking traffic, this contractor fellow got a trifle peeved.
When the pinkster whipped around him at the next light to show off how well he could balance in the crosswalk,
said contractor amigo let fly with a half full "big gulp" of soda, hitting pink in the face.
Then he said, what are you gonna do about it, punk? You got a @#$@#$in pink bike! What are your friends gonna do about it? Nothing!"
Luckily it dodn't go any further.
Another time I was driving riding town and some of these bike punks swarmed down the street, yelling at cars and grazing them with their handlebars (mine has a scar  )
After scraping along the side of my car, one of them swatted at the car in front of me and yelled at its driver.
To the bikers' surprise, the driver jumped out with a walkie talkie in one hand and a badge in the other. Couple got collared, the rest ran away....
So good job controlling your irritation.

I hate people who do things I'm not into. Lets all dump 7 11 big gulps of mountain dew on them for sucking so much!
