Thread: Collective nouns for cyclist.

im a triathlete so we are called a "bloody mess of want to be's" by cyclists since we have no idea how to ride in a pack or draft, its like dodgem cars on our long rides!

Can any of you come up with some for cyclist?

A charm of Ballerinas
A cackle of Witches
A sludge of Sewer Workers
A mute of Mimes
A shortage of Jockeys
A deceit of Lawyers
A sleaze of Lawyers
A mischief of Boys
An ostentation of Opera goers

unless you're playing this game during the post-ride massage, you need to ride more ... or something. ANYTHING!

How about "a spin of cyclists?"

a hit cyclist
a quick cyclist
a racing cyclist
a smart cyclist

My four wheel addicted buddies refer to us as a chicane of cyclists

I'd say a CHAIN of Cyclists, but seeing that this was already proposed, what about a GEAR of Cyclists?

After the race we did on Sunday, where we battled against the wind, pedalled aboput 20 kms uphill, etc. (you DO get the message, don't you?) I will also suggest a SIGH of Cyclists!

50cc's of cyclists

if apt is called for:
a "reek", "stench", "ripe", "vile", or, "rank" of cyclists
an "odor" of cyclists
i hold these truths to be self evident...
