You know you're a long distance cyclist when:

*you forget to take your helmet off when going into stores.
*you have to wash your bicycle before taking it into a hotel room.
*you've only been in a motor vehicle once in the past month.
*you know where everything is in 4 panniers, a handlebar bag, a wedge bag, and a back rack.
*you don't mind being a bit of a spectacle.
*the tent does feel like home.
*you have serious muscles.
