I used to work with @the_lecht_rocks about 15-20 years ago, although I don't think he's active on here anymore. His current employers are maybe a bit more strict with the internet use 😆

We both also worked with another guy, Derek (can't remember his username, loved Nicolai bikes), who was active on here around the same time but sadly he passed away.

Kind of reverse bumping into, think I've cottoned on that I know @onewheelgood. Early retirement thread + username got my spidey senses tingling, NBD post sealed it.

I have yet to tell him IRL.

worked out after I got home on the weekend I was likely go-karting with @benz through a mutual (non cycling) friend.ย

Bumped into 'Stanley' and his Mrs. today. They were on their gravel bikes, we were on the tandem (oiling the chains on a hill top). So great to see him looking well.

Not in person but I believe there's a few STWers over here. Maybe a summer meet up at a suitably chosen pub in Freo might be nice?

Do we need a low-key greeting? A question we can ask someone, and a set answer, that if the person being asked wasn't on STW wouldn't make the person asking look like much of a fool/weirdo.ย 

There's another lovely corner of the internet that I frequent that ask "Are you on e-mail", to which the answer would be "you simply have to be these days".

May I propose "Do you know Jeremy?", with a reply of "Yes, he once once owned a tandem"

I've also had a friend who appears in a lot of my photos get asked if he is me at traffic lights.ย 

I came here to say I asked someone if they were @Munrobiker once (at traffic lights). It wasn't, I felt sheepish, so keep my head down now.
