There are no such thing as bicycle "breaks", they are called "Brakes". Likewise, there are no such things as bicycle "peddles", they're called "Pedals". Sheesh! Finally got that one off my chest.

My pet peeve is "rack".
Does it go on the bike, or secure the bike... and to an inanimate stationary object, or to a moving one...

Jerseys fit better these days, but if you have one that flaps it's pretty easy to take it in.
Zig zag stitch to preserve the stretchiness, no need to cut off the excess.
