Competitive cyclists have an intensity about the sport that is specifically calibrated. They know their numbers — watts, cadence, VAM on climbs, the time they put into a local segment they've been trying to beat for four months. They have a relationship with suffering that is not masochistic exactly but is genuinely accepting: the hard part is the point, and the hard part is what produces the result, and they have learned to find something almost pleasant in the effort that most people would find purely unpleasant. Their bike cost more than a used car and they would do it again. They have opinions about components that would take forty minutes to explain. The gift for a competitive cyclist is something that improves the performance, the recovery, or the experience of riding — something that fits the level they're actually at, which is serious.
