I'm 45 years old
When I'm on the road bike, on a little muddy lane, in the 53, on the rivet, I like to pretend I'm Sean Kelly in a spring classic
That will be all
When I walk through the office at work I like to pretend it's the lobby scene from the matrix...
I pretend I'm a millionaire while I'm having a poo.
When I ride down the Belmont descent I actually cackle really loud like a bond villain! I'm 41 but feel about 12
This is without doubt a totally ace thing. I never ever want it to change! Ever!
Have been known to quote the following, prior to conducting annual appraisals.... 😳
[i]The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy My brothers. And you will know My name is the Lord when I lay My vengeance upon thee. [/i] 😉
Dear panel,
When out & about, if one runs across a load of primary school kids doing cycling proficiency, is it acceptable to bunny hop over a speed bump and then accelerate away out of the saddle, waving cheerily?

I own Lego. Star Wars Lego. I'm 39.
Andy, yes. It is obligatory to ride to full radnezzz in such situations.
When I decide to grow up i'l let you know
I'm 46 maybe one day I'll grow up
I'm 36, i'm currently obsessed with finding parts to build a screen accurate lightsaber
I'll grow up when I damn well feel like it
I'm 55. It hasn't been necessary to grow up yet and it's probably not worth the effort now.
When I push a trolley through a supermarket I make quiet engine, gearchange and tyre skidding noises to myself. I'm 46.
Anyone else pull off some rad trolley 360 action?
I'm guilty of trolley grand prix action also.
My trolleys get the Scandinavian flick

You know when you get stuck behind slow walking people? I make the 'boost' noise from Burnout when I finally get the chance to pass them.
Skillz, iDave, skillz......
Dairylea on toast is my favourite food.

I rolled a trolley in Tesco once. Foot on wheel to get it to corner, foot slipped off wheel, over goes Atlaz and his trolley full of shopping. I looked like a monumental dick but shopping at a 24-hour shop in the middle of the night meant nobody really saw (hopefully).
When I ride up and down the Downs, I pretent to be either Fabian Cancellara, Philip Gilbert or Sammi Sanchez (my current most popular choice)
I killed it yesterday on the roads, wet leafy steep roads, today they're drier but more leaf covered.
I rode in Orange (Euskatel Orange) today, la cabeza llevó a cabo el colmo, piernas que quemaban, pulmones que reventaban, goteo de la nariz.
Long live Youth.

I do tend to try and hold the slide for as long as I can......my record is just past the bagels
When I'm on nights and wondering through the quiet, mostly empty hospital corridors, I pretend I have a pair of pistols cocked and ready to shoot zombies....

Ah, well I only rally trolleys in the garden centre. In the supermarket it's F1 style smoothness.
When I [b]walk[/b] down to the warehouse at work, on a particular right-hand turn I take the perfect racing line and exit the corner with just "two wheels" on the curb on the far left.
Sometimes make skidding noise, depends on state of tyres and tyre choice for that day.
I'm 44.
I cant resist spinning around in chairs.
When I'm on the road bike I pretend I'm a WW2 pilot shooting baddies (Car drivers) I have a scratch on my lense which doubles up as a cross hair.
I'll grow up when I find some one I want to grow up like.

Flatland trickz in Waitrose FTW!
i still find audible flatulence funny

WHAT you mean some people actually don't spin or wheelie their trolleys... Weirdos.
Sometimes even the wee one is more mature than I am 😀
Whenever i pick up / put down anything heavy i make pneumatic hissing noises as if i have bionic knees.
Also if handed a pan or collunder i will immediately, compulsively put it on my head and pull faces
Whenever I visit the local Decathlon store, I ALWAYS* have to have a go on the scooters, whizzing up and down the aisles at speed. I have been told off by staff about this. I'm 42.
* including one occasion when I popped in whilst working. With a 50 yr old colleague. Both wearing suits.
When I was a kid, I used to 'ride' shopping trolleys by getting a head of speed up and then jumping and locking my arms out on the bar. Occasionally, I still do.
You can't do it with the shallow trolleys though. If you try and do it with those, they squirt out from underneath you, nose upwards, and you go [i]splat[/i] full length in the Tesco Extra car park in Cardiff. I imagine.

Sieve + wooden spoon = Kendo.
I will often mutter to myself..."And who'd have thought it after all these years, but here he is, Darcy, representing Ireland at the Olympics...". This will be when undertaking any sporting endeavour...whatever the sport. Even swimming. Which I'm shitter than a ball bearing at. 🙂

I do this everytime i'm in the supermarket. Including this morning for the full length of the egg/rolls ailse
I still year shorts to school. 39 (I am a teacher so not as odd as it could be).
I make up voices for animals and say things out loud as if I am that animal when I see them.
I'm 44.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who pisses around with trollies.
I do also try and wheelie my road bike.
In my defence, I'm only 20.
I still avoid the gaps between paving slabs.
49 and 3/4
I embarrass my wife by dancing to the background music in DIY stores 😳
I sing the Bodyform song in the supermarket. 🙂
"I sing the Bodyform song in the supermarket"
I only do that when I rollerblade with a dalmation
I'm teaching my 21 month old daughter to 'pull my finger' and to exclaim 'poot' and laugh when she farts.
That's just part of being a dad - right?
