knight in shining lycra

i couldnt do anything with my hair until eric my hairdresser came like a knight in shining lycra and made me beautiful

Lycranthropy 

From Lycra and Lycanthropy:
1) The tendency to wear spandex at night when the moon is full.
2) The mythical ability to turn into a spandex clad super hero when the moon is full
I knew my lycranthropy had gotten out of hand when I found myself at midnight in the grocery store wearing spandex shirt and shorts with the bike at home.

lycranthrope 

A lycra-wearing cyclist who shape changes into a bicycle-riding wolf when there's a full moon. They then randomly break off wing mirrors and shout abuse at motorists who they think have wronged them.
The other night I was just minding my own business, sat at the traffic lights, and some passing lycranthrope broke off my wing mirror and implied that I indulge in self-abuse! Must be a full moon again.

Lycra Lout

Adjective: A collective term that has come into being to describe those who, more often than not clad in figure-hugging brightly coloured stretchy materials, flout road laws and common sense, by riding their bikes on public roads (and pavements/side walks) without any consideration for other road users and/or pedestrians.
Examples of Lycra Lout behaviour include running red lights (both road junction and pedestrian crossing points), vulgar gestures and language to almost anyone who gets in their way, and sometimes even unwarranted and unprovoked violent behaviour towards anyone having the gall to question their actions (esp. pedestrians and motorists).

no lights no lycra 

An alt. exercise night (which originated in Melbourne Australia in 2009) where you dance unselfconsciously in badly-lit rooms without mirrors. "There is no light, no lycra, no teacher, no steps to learn, no technique, just free movement."
"Wanna hit the gym?"

"No way, with this beer gut it's No Lights No Lycra or nothin' for me."
