Simpsons takes on cycling
I haven't really watched this in years.
Missed this episode but hopefully it's available somewhere online.

Recent Simpsons episodes are available for free on the Fox Now app (with a cable subsciption) and Hulu (you'll need a Hulu subscription), and can be purchased for a small fee on Amazon Video, Vudu, Apple TV, and Fandango (no subscription necessary). I think you can get the first 60 minutes on the Fox Now app without a subscription, which should be long enough to watch an episode of the Simpsons.

This is awesome. A buddy(also forumite) and I were at a restaurant on Sunday when this episode aired. He looked at me and asked, "How long before this is discussed on the forum?"

To add to Thrillhouse's comment, the writers of The Simpsons could've taken it all one step further to jabbed at how these "cyclists" would discuss the run-in on an internet forum the next day!

Yeah I just happened to watch it by chance, hilarious- when their Garmins all fell and broke and someone yelled - “our data wasn’t downloaded”-

Talking
Did the whole episode have a cycling theme or just this "cyclist bar" scene?
The club names on jerseys, bottle cages on barstools, and GPS computers are hilarious!

Thanks - Saved it using iOS Screen Recording
I only found the short promo on YouTube.

"Sons of Shimano"

Any Campy references?
