Acronyms?
At the great risk of appearing stupid or lazy, I must ask:
Is there a page or thread that lists the many biking acronyms and their meanings?
I mean, I could tell you in my world what a PIG (Project In Grocery Bag) or a UFO (Unfinished Object) is, but I just don't know what a MUP is.

there has been at least one thread (probably in a couple of Forums).
Quick search proves I'm missing key words to be successful.
i have to check the urban dictionary often to 1/2 way keep up with some online 'discussions'.
I was in the USN, when acronyms were mostly a military and government thing. I was more interested in ARPANET than UFOs.

I assumed there would be such a page, and I really did try to find it. I finally had to give up, because reading all the posts full of acronyms I found while looking only served to frustrate me more. Thanks to all who graciously indulged me.
