Some folks that I used to ride a few years back but don’t now, as they’ve chucked it. My friends these days seem mainly to be folks I ride with, and a couple of proper old friends.
This too 😐
A couple of years ago if it was just 3-4 of us it seemed pretty low-key, these days it’s usually just the two of us, Mrs Jay calls him “my other wife” ha ha. No one chucked it in, some prefer to go it alone, some only come out when the sun is shining, it’s not too windy, not too cold, not too hot… I’m sure planets need to be aligned just right.
The worst ones though… you know the type, the sort you get stuck with at parties because “Jamie likes bikes” he’ll yarn on for 30 mins about Whister this, or Danny Mac that, but you know his bike is laying dirty and rusting since the last time he threw a leg over it for an hour three and a half years ago. I mean, the Faux Surfer I understand, the Gower is full of them, but the Faux Mountain Biker, why? Mountain Biking has never been cool – the closest we get to cool is a 30 second clip of Rampage on E4s Rude Tube.
