Ideas?

1. What kind of bike do you ride?/Tell us about your bike [please].

2. Do you commute on your bike?

3. Are you a cyclist? / What's your preferred term for describing what you are in relation to your bike?

4. A similar question geared towards how they identify as a member of Sloan, e.g. are they businessmen, professors, economists, grad students, etc.

5. An exploration of the relationship between these two forms of identity.

6. What do you wear when you commute if you commute? What do you like to ride in? Have you ever ridden a bike in a suit? What do you do when you need to look nice, but are biking somewhere?
