It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

although I don't dress up for the Giro d'Italia when riding my bike

Aww come on man. Right after the positive message about avoiding fatphobia, you gotta spread that anti-cycling-as-sport bs? Nobody ever makes fun of soccer players for not wearing a suit and tie, or someone out for a casual jog for not wearing cargo shorts and sandals. Why do people, even other cyclists, make fun of people wearing the gear designed to be ideal for cycling while…out cycling?
