Socks match jersey. No other coordination. Just socks and jersey.

when getting dressed, i do everything with the left side of my body first: left glove, then right glove, left arm first through the jersey, then shorts (left leg first), then socks (left foot first), then shoes (left foot first). when putting snacks, phone, wallet, etc in my jersey, i start on the back left pocket and work my way to the right pocket. when i load the bike in the homemade rack in the bed of my truck, it HAS to be on the left side. i always clip my left foot in first, and when coming to stops i unclip my left foot and leave the right attached to the bike. i only look over my shoulder to the left. i have a phobia of passing people on the right if there's no room on their left. i only drink from my water bottles using my left hand.
i'm right-handed btw
i'm right-handed btw
I am a lefty however.

This thread has made me realize how much BF has screwed up my brain. It never occurred to me to interpret OCP any way other than the BF way until ahsposo said he thought the P stood for Personality. I guess it makes sense if you think about it, but thinking has never been something I do when on BF.

Seems like most "regulars" hang around for 2 years or so before they leave for a variety of reasons. Others stick around for a shorter period of time.

That thread was before my time but when I saw references to it I thought the "P" was replacing Disease because so much of cycling can be, well, Obsessive Compulsive. And instead of thinking of it as a malfunction thinking of it as just a character trait.
Shows how wrong you can be.

Just as a curiosity, EVERY time to you swing a leg over the bike you immediately clip in and go? I'm betting that leg puts a foot down a good bit of the time. Glove adjust, helmet adjust, package adjust, zero out the computer, oh wait-junior isn't ready to go, etc., etc...it happens.

There is some seriously funny stuff in that thread!
It's too bad it's 6 years old and a lot of what must have been pretty good bike porn is gone.
Amazing how many themes re-occur over and over in these forums. Underwear under bibs for example.
My favorite OC post from this was deciding on a sport drink based on color coordination with your bike.
I don't care who you are. That's OC...

You Know!? For Kids!
Seems like a lot of us are old timers in this thread. I think posting in the 41 burns you out. I live in Foo now and come here every now and then to remind myself why.
