There is a lamp post on one of the tracks on my local loop comes on at night and everything only trouble it's in the middle of nowhere not a house for miles god knows why its there.

Any wardrobes nearby? Or weird looking statues? Does it snow a lot?

I dont know about out riding but we were at Lands End last week and there was a woman walking a tortoise on a lead.

I think I bumped into her up near John O'Groats in about 1987

Oh, we went to check out the new tracks at Billinge Woods the other day. A couple of choice sights from that included a rambler walking up the switchbacks, and a couple of kids on BMXs with no helmets or protection hurtling down like the place was on fire. Fortunately, not at the same time.

Ahhh so it's chav infested already :(....wondered how long that would last

Plenty of squaddies on training exercises during night rides round my way. Almost got run over by a tank a couple of years ago!

Also saw a guy on a unicycle over at Swinley last week (Wednesday evening I think). Has to be a member of this forum?!

On the way back from a ride in Brecon, climbing the A470 towards Pen-y Fan, I looked to the right and saw a woman playing a cello half way up one of the waterfalls. A second look spotted a man taking photographs of her, kind of explained things I suppose.

Just about to pull into a bothy in the Cairngorms when 4 blokes emerged out the front door wearing 17th century Redcoat uniforms, Musketts - the full nine yards.

No words were exchanged and I was so gobsmacked I just continued on my merry way

Coming off one of the road connecting links on our local ride found a couple in a car , she was pleasuring her male companion in an oral fashion. She flushed up a treat as we rode past waving and laughing ๐Ÿ˜†

Wasn't this guy was it?

For me it was on Friday evening. Cycle commuting home via the extremely busy A3 and as i approached the bottom of Clapham High Street saw a guy on a 'tall' bike on the other side, heading North towards Stockwell. He was overtaking a bus.

No idea what he does at the numerous traffic lights. (well, actually, I do know, I guess he RLJ's). It was a model very similar to the bike on the left ๐Ÿ˜ฏ

May well have been, he was pulled over to let us by and I was a bit gobsmacked to take too much in. Can't imagine there's too many of them about!

At the end of a very long descent in Morzine just after a sharp 90 degree bend the trail went past someone's garden/garage where there was 6ft tall blonde women in a tiny bikini working on some timber on a workmate with the biggest belt sander I've ever seen. Next to her was a weird old trampy looking man sat in deck chair watching intently. As each person rounded the corner they nearly fell of their bike. It was like that 'push me and then just touch me' [url=

Surreal.

Glove tree?

Or what about child's policeman uniform hanging from tree in dry cleaning bag miles from the nearest road?

Or the two women in red capes walking side by side not very far from that police uniform tree. When I asked them where was the big bad wolf they looked at me with the blackest eyes but said nothing. I was so creeped out I had to cycle away very quickly!
