[#6625496]

I am off the bike after an OTB incident so yesterday i used the time to do a full fork,shock service and general tinker,afterwards i put shiney bike back where it lives in our spare room.
Today i was sauntering past the spare room door whilst my semi-naked better half was changing not two yards away from my bundle of carbon joy.
I glanced in and said "Look at that bike eh faaaantastic!" The rapieer- like reply was "your wife's got her tits out and that's all you can say! that's what 20 years of marriage does for you".
STWers any suggestions to smooth things over a bit?

Just to pre-empt the inevitable "pics please": no,no way and never in that order(although requests for bike pics are acceptable).

How often do you service and fully lube your pride and joy?

Seems quite badly worn around the rim.

Might be worth upgrading to a newer model.

how often do you through your leg over and have a good ride?
Do you wear a helmet when you do so?
Do you go up the main path or the dirt track? ๐Ÿ˜•

Obviously you were talking to your bike about your wife, as you don't have any actual friends because your wife is all the best friend you need

Look at that bike eh, fantastic!

Of course the part the OP failed to mention in that story is that the voice making the rapier like reply what not that of his wife.

spend the evening wandering around with your tadger hanging out. If she doesn't ignore you completely (which is what my wife does) she'll probably make a disparaging remark. I can bet she won't compliment you on having a handsome cock.

Then ask her what's different and you feel offended that she hasn't said what pretty pecker you have. Then sulk for several days.

[Obviously only works at home. Don't do this if it's parents evening, or you're doing some late night christmas shopping. That will elicit all sorts of comments, and a ride in a police car]

If you sneaked another one in and it was the same colour, would she notice?

We have a Jack Russel Terrier so not worth the risk but nice idea.

EDIT: Actually, not there at all. Carry on.

Ouch that was a good smack down OTB! But nothing compared to your wife's retort!

The quicker you accept that you are both out of order and wrong the easier it will all be.

Is that at gisburn? If it is I've the exact same thing there.

Never mixed up the bike and the missus though. I keep the missus in the garage!!
