Murphy’s Law Of Cycling (Source: Cycling Tips)
Murphy’s Law states that anything that can go wrong will go wrong.
Murphy’s Law #1
Murphy’s Law #2
Murphy’s Law #3
Murphy’s Law #4
Murphy’s Law #5
Murphy’s Law #6
and of course it will also rain when you do bring a rain jacket…
Not necessarily “Murphy’s Laws”, but a few other Laws of Cycling that always hold true:
- When you go into a bikeshop with intentions to buy some handlebar tape you’ll come out at least $300 poorer every time.
- You will always be home from a ride 30mins later than you told your wife. Always blame Law#5 and your riding mate.
- You will drive into your garage with your bike on your roofrack at some stage in your life. Guaranteed.
- When building a bike from parts you bought over the internet there will always be a piece that doesn’t fit.
- The day you have an unplanned EPIC 200km wet, windy, cold ride you’ll have big social engagement that evening.
And when riding with cleats for the first time, you will tip over while stationary, in front of at least 2 bemused bystanders.

ReplyDeleteI Must add:
... And it will always be a problem with the delivery for that last piece you need to complete the bike.
Of course I know this because I am in this situation right now.
