Let’s get something straight immediately. I do not cycle nor would I look good in a cycling onesie. I leave that to the true cycling professionals. You might remember that I tried a spin class and detailed my near death experience in this blog post. Hilarious, I know.

Now, let’s find out what the cycling craze is all about.
