    you've probably all been wondering why nobody has made a top ten for cyclists... i'm sure you have.... come on.... ok, you haven't.

    regardless; let's see if we can do it between us. nothing too obvious like bicycle race by queeeeeen or the pushbike song by mungo (& midge); i'm looking for songs with accidental cycling lyrics or titles where the artist has clearly made a subconscious nod to our beloved hobby.

    here's a few to get started, but please add some more.

    1. Queen - any way the wind blows, doesn't really matter (sorry freddie, it does.)

    2. Elvis Costello - pump it up (for gatorskin owners.)

    3. Shirelles - Wilier still love me tomorrow?

    once we've got a bunch, we'll put them in some kind of order; could even have a vote although that sounds a bit too democratic for my liking.
