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.
