Quite frankly, I’m shocked.

in those days, the word gay meant happy.
the meaning has changed slightly in more recent years afaik.

There was even a gay double decker bus, called the Gay Hostess, run by Standerwick.

Then there is the obvious joke about the bendy buses.

More to the point, what is a “jeanager”?

Must admit that bike is a bit Gay. 😀

Anyone?

Think the term 29’er is the updated phrase 😛

I’m not going to search “gay” on google images to join in as I’m scared of what I might see and I’m currently out of eye/brain bleach. 😀

Edit:

Pmsl!

They do dry cleaning here;

I’d be more shocked to find out that folks on here actually ride bikes rather than the same sex.

And not forgetting the Gay Dog Boarding Kennels!

The reading books we had at primary school were called Gay Way Readers. I sat on anyones knee to read them my way though.

PMSL, seriously. 🙂

On a more serious note has anyone ever actually met a gay mountain biker? Not trying to be funny or anything just never met any?

I tried on some new Lycra today and found myself strangely attracted to myself. Not sure what that means.

Really? Are you sure?

Not really sure what is the exact thing that triggers your gaydar ?
Truthfully Yes I have

Not trying to be funny or anything just never met any?

I bet you have

if you want to meet one, post up a notice at the Peaslake bus stop.

just never met any?

How would you know if an MTBer was gay, exactly? Have you enquired as to the sexual orientation of everyone you’ve ridden with?

Do they wear pink or something? I’m not sure how I’d identify one. I’m guessing they’d look quite a lot like me, like riding bikes and generally behave like all other men. Some pointers would be useful.

Think a gay biker would have a pink bike, would be easy to spot surely 😯

Sorry I didn’t word that very well, I’ve got lots of cycling friends (none of which are gay) and I have other (non cycling friends) who are gay, I wasn’t suggesting that they would stand out differently than anyone else! Before people get on theire moral high horses 😕

Morel?

I HATE MUSHROOMS!

…and generally behave like all other men

I know one who behaves more like a woman. Because she is.

Aren’t they the “mincers” you all speak of on here? Or have I got it wrong? 😀

This is funniest thread I have read in ages.

You calling me gay.?

Dohh 😳

I think that’s ‘Hot Pink’ which means while you’re not technically gay, you’d try a ladyboy after a couple of pints.

You can tell that from my bike. I’m impressed. 😀

It’s not just the colour, it’s because your tyre and wheel motifs don’t line up.

Says you’re not fussed as long it all functions !

I’m not sure I’ve met a gay one but I know at least one bi-cyclist and I wouldnt be surprised after the lady boy thread that there might be some on here …

I have quite a close relationship with a gay roadie….

He’s gayer than Jack McGay from Gaysville but he’s still my eldest son.

Good on you… I have a female friend who’s brother it’s gay and their dad still can’t accept it. It’s a shame when something like that breaks a family up.

Valves and Tyre logos surely.?

There are well over 10 guys in my riding crew, so the odds are …

“I think that’s ‘Hot Pink’ which means while you’re not technically gay, you’d try a ladyboy after a couple of pints.”

So is “Dark Pink” when the answer to the question might still be “no” after a couple of pints, but after a couple more, the question might be “pre or post op?”…

Would have to be barbie pink for a true gay man
A friend at work is gay, and married, he would find this hilarious

Met a gay mountain biker?

Err, hello?????

On a more serious note has anyone ever actually met a gay mountain biker? Not trying to be funny or anything just never met any?

There are lots of them, they are like…people who ride bikes…. They do disproportionately attract nicknames such as “trail fairy” which can’t be helped really 😉

It’s not something I would even wonder about these days
