You don’t need to be \u201cThe Mentalist\u201d to spot secret hints unveiling that the lady in front of you is a keen biker. Watch out for these convincing signs listed below.<\/strong><\/p>\n

A strange bulge right under her T-shirt indicates that her collarbone must have been broken in the past.<\/p>\n

Despite working in a nearby office, her palms are covered with calluses as if she were a lumberjack.<\/p>\n

Instead of a photo of her children, her smartphone shows a photo depicting her while doing some crazy stunt on the bike.<\/p>\n

Every October right before Halloween, she summons all friends to join her for watching Red Bull Rampage<\/a> live in a pub.<\/p>\n

When walking down the street, she turns her head after every bike, commenting on it with the strange technical vocabulary you might mix up with gibberish.<\/p>\n

There’s usually a slightly visible chainring print on the back of her calf or tiny freckles of dried dirt and\/or cowpat on her cheeks…<\/p>\n

She wears jewellery made of bicycle chain links around her neck or wrist assuming it is cool like it used to be some ten years ago.<\/p>\n

She never gets out of breath even after climbing to the tenth floor.<\/p>\n

A coffee cup on her table tells the world she\u2019s been at \u201cFat Tire Festival<\/a>\u201d.<\/p>\n

\"Cycling
Why is this not cool anymore? Damn…<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

She attempts to do wheelies even with shopping trolleys.<\/p>\n

Her T-shirt says she’s in love with Whistler (unless she’s a skier too).<\/p>\n

She doesn’t think a rainbow jersey has something to do with a Pride parade.<\/p>\n

Even though she comes from a country that is officially using the metric system, you might bet on hearing her counting in inches \u2013 something between 26” and 29”.<\/p>\n

Once a year, she comes to work wearing a brand new cast on her hand adapted in a way allowing her to still hold the handlebars.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
