Road Kill Rules
Printer-friendly versionHere is a complete listing of all the "Road Kill Rules". It's a loose collection of quotes, comments and information that help guide the Road Kill experience.
If
If you paid for that you probably paid too much!
Sarcastic remark usually meant for haircuts, but also applied to over-priced drinks on RAGBRAI
Go Around Once
You only go around once in life. You might as well go around drunk.
Nobody Leaves...
Nobody leaves until everyone has had enough and only you know if you've had enough; but a officer of the law can assist you in your decision.
Free!
If it's free, always take two.
Some small town in Iowa, one day in July...
Sunglasses
If you have lost your sunglasses, check the last place you puked.

The Future
When I see an adult on a bicycle, I do not despair for the future of the human race.
Einstein
Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance you must keep moving.
Hemingway
"It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle."
Sex
"Bicycle riding as little as three miles a day will improve your sex life."
Bikes and Husbands
The bicycle is just as good company as most husbands and, when it gets old and shabby, a woman can dispose of it and get a new one without shocking the entire community.
Minneapolis Tribune in 1895

Look Up!
If constellations had been named in the 20th century, I suppose we would see bicycles.

Numb genitals take away the fun of riding with friends
