given many track riders compete on the road and none [ to my knowledge] in an other bike sport then, i would say, it is dark side

But then what about the Mountain Bike Track that was used for the Olympics... They just go round and round! MIND BLOWN! 😯

Em nope – here's how it works

[b]Road riding[/b] - the way of the Jedi
[b]Track riding[/b] - the way of the dizzy Jedi
[b]Fixie riding[/b] - the clone army before it went all dark side on unsuspecting Jedi butt
[b]BMX[/b]- the way of the Hutt (looks mean at first but ultimately doesn't achieve much)
[b]MTB[/b] - is what happens when Obi Wan becomes Old Ben Kenobe
[b]Downhill[/b] - defo dark side-aligned, but not in a super evil way. Maybe the equivalent of Peter Cushing in the Death Star
[b]Panniers and other abominations [/b] - Supremo dark side with mustard

Sorted.

Flashy, nah tandem is the ultimate Sith:

For didn't Yoda say of the Sith:

[i]"Always two, there are. No more, no less. A master, and an apprentice."[/i]

He did.

I checked it. It's in the Phantom Menace. So there.

Valid point.

JarJar Binks rode a 29er ss, though. FACT.

I always thought of it as more Ewoks than dark-side.

Stoker can definitely make out the Death Star from where he's sitting, too:
