Cycling, now with 23% less Lance.
On a whim, I did a google trends search for “cycling.” I was not expecting the result.
I thought it was pretty cool how seasonal the trend is. Either le Tour is really popular or people only ride bikes when it’s warm. Crazy people.
I was not expecting to see the peaks getting lower. I welcome any explanations. Is it Lance related? Is it Tour de France related? Is doping turning people off? Is the sport leaving a golden era of popularity?
The trend for popular cycling n00b retailer Bike Nashbar shows similar stormclouds.
Laaaaannnccceeee.
Come back…
i propose that it is not cycling that is growing less popular, but the act of searching instead! i guess this internet fad isn’t really catching on.
the proof is in the pudding
