Went down a hill with daughter behind on the trailer bike.

Stopped at red light at the bottom and white van pulls up beside us.

“You were whizzing down there, whizzing! Brilliant”

Made my morning 🙂

On another occasion dropped her off at school, cycling home with an unoccupied trailer bike.

Bloke: “Mate! You’ve lost your passenger!”
Me: “Shit!” *turns round and accelerates back the other way*
Bloke: *confused face*

a man hanging out of a white flat bed ford,
“ere mate, where the f*** is your fork”, he’d never seen a lefty before and was suitably impressed, asking is it difficult to get your balance. :0)

at the weekend, as i turned off the road onto saddleworth moor proper, a group of chinese cyclists who had stopped for a rest asked,
“where are your mates, you cant be riding up their on your own”

my brain had a minute delay, as my response should have been
‘dont worry lads ive got an air ambulance as backup’

I like “Mark Flabendish”. Bradley Piggins?

Demoing a couple of Birds around Swinley with a significantly younger girl friend (not girlfriend) when a guy on a Capra says “Nice bird mate”, “Yeh I think so”. Flattered that he thought she was my bird, though to be honest he’d been waiting to say that to any ‘couple’ he saw on a Bird.

He could have said “Nice ride mate”

I’ve got nothing 🙁 I’m going to ride to work in the morning and attempt to annoy somebody in the process.

I remembered a classic crap heckle from 2012 on my way home.

It was not long after the TdF and I was on my MTB in the evening on my way over the chase, riding past a load of yooves on the park and one of them pipes up ‘hey look it’s Ricky Hatton! Hurr hurr’
He was quite pleased with himself for half a second until his mate shouted at him ‘its Bradley Wiggins you bell end’

I smirked and carried on my merry way.

I was cutting across a public footpath and passed a group of 5 schoolgirls who decided to sing “I like to ride my bicycle” as I rode past….
made sure I unclipped properly before the gate at the end…. would have been bad otherwise…

We occasionally see groups of RAF squaddies out for a walk/march on the road*, they always make the same weird heckling noise as we pass (it’s a bit like the noise my son makes when playing with his toy cars). I’m not sure why, but they seem to enjoy it!

*the mix of camouflage and hi-viz clothing always raises a smile!

“she’s fallen off”?

“Thank god for that. I thought I’d gone deaf!”

Surprising how often it fits, and when it doesn’t fit,

Thats not what your mum said.
