The Real Uses Of Bike Tools

Do you have a Campagnolo corkscrew?




Or a Park Tool pizza cutter?





Or a Maillard Helicomatic freewheel remover with a built-in bottle opener?






Well, then, you are misguided.  A real cyclist knows you don't need food- (or drink-) specific utensils:




I mean, you can eat pizza with a bicycle fork.  Right?

Well, all right:  As a New Yorker of Italian heritage, I would never, ever use anything besides my fingers to handle  Neopolitan or Sicilian slices. (A person of my background also does not allow any sort of topping on her pizza.  Pineapples?  Barbecued beef?  They're like chocolate chips in a bagel, as far as I'm concerned.)

So what do you eat with your cone wrench?
