New Cycling Term

So i came up with a new cycling term the other day. Actually I was listening to the local sports radio station and they were talking about the chicago bulls and how one player had a great game and had gotten a bunch of rebounds. They refered to him as pogo, as in pogo stick.

As soon as they uttered that word I laughed out loud because it is the perfect description of some riders. There's one in particular that when he gets going out of the saddle or tries to animate a race there's no other word to describe his technique as well as the sound his bike makes. Pogo.

The perfect example of this was during the first fall fling crit. All of a sudden i hear this noise from behind and without even looking i think to myself, i wonder if that is rider x. sure enough he comes bounding past me in a way that's best described as somebody riding a pogo stick. left, right, left, right, and i swear to god he's actually bouncing.

so the tip for the day is don't be a pogo.
