Bikochondriac (n)...

[LoHo]

1. The condition one develops when reading the list, deciding that each problem described is about to happen to ones' own bike.

2. Paranoia about breaking down on the road.

3. Fearing that every whine, click, or clunk, no matter how minor, means an engine rebuild is in order.

every whine, click, or clunk

Hate it when riding in traffic and then a very "BAD" kinda sound starts and then goes away then comes back....
Then relief when it turns out to be coming from some POS cage

I get that a lot with smells. I'll be sitting at a light and I start smelling gas or oil. Immediately think 'what's wrong now' and then I notice the exhaust on the car in front of me is fogging for mosquitoes.

LOL...I did that last week. Pulled away from a light and heard a terrible grinding whine. Let off the gas and it stopped. Throttled up, there it is again. Let off the gas, but the sound kept up. Then I noticed the guy edging his lawn...
