Contains some sound advice, but most of it is a bit tongue in cheek.

Should be compulsory reading and part of the membership package if you ask me Ben. In fact, members should be tested on it before being issued with their card!

I could add more no-nos:
Neoprene overshoes plus shorts
Shorts below 20oC
Turning bike upside down to fix puncture

The Euro-cyclist guide is fantastic, I'll try and fish it out.

Basically, unless you look like Mario Cipollini, you're uncool.

While we're on the subject of compulsory reading/viewing I think everyone should read 'The Rider' by Tim Krabbe, and watch 'A Sunday in Hell' story of the 1976 Paris-Roubaix.
