@MartyCormack asks:
I'm pretty deep into cycling culture/lifestyle/community as I ride multiple bikes, ride nearly daily, microblog about it, advocate for it, participate in bike events, bike tour/bikepack etc. But I am not as deep as others as I don't build or refurbish bikes, I don't race, I don't watch cycling sports, etc.
Q2. How deep (or shallow) are you into cycling culture/lifestyle/community?

@ascentale @MartyCormack @bikenite #BikeNite A2. I am really not at all into the competitive or performance parts of cycling culture. I am really into cargo bikes and ebikes and folding bikes and ways bikes improve cities. Most of this takes the form of infodumping and receiving infodumps, because I'm such a homebody. I will talk about it with anyone (friends, coworkers, strangers) if they ask, too. I'm also super interested in bike repairs, bikepacking, and randonneuring, although I'm only qualified to receive infodumps on those. I enjoy [#] HaulShitOlympics and do post to that when I have an entry to submit. But the TL;DR is my relationship with my bike is as a commuter, and just really enjoy the kinds of freedom a cargo-e-bike gives me.
@iris @ascentale @MartyCormack @bikenite I need to find the pic of me hauling my fat bike and my Brompton on my cargo bike (not at the same time yet)

A2. I cycle, therefore I am.
I'd say very deep, which is supported by the large percentage of my t-shirts that are cycling-themed.
