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."

Lycralist

A recreational cyclist who insists on wearing body hugging Lycra despite not being skilled or fit enough to enter a race or time-trial.

Lycralists can be identified by:
1. Ignoring traffic signals.
2. No stopping for pedestrians at crossings.
3. Ignoring lane restrictions.
4. Overtaking where it is most dangerous, on the inside of motorvehicles.
5. Refusing to use cycle lanes - possibly because they believe cycle lanes are only for children.
6. Complain when the above behaviour leads to the death of a cyclist.
I saw a pedestrian knocked down by a Lycralist outside the police station, but the police did nothing.
