Is it really so hard to start a conversation with someone who obviously shares a common interest ?
How about something along the lines of "Do you just commute by bike or do you ride at weekends as well ?"
A fairly neutral question to ask someone you meet regularly and a bit less socially awkward than asking her out directly.
Gives her the opportunity to say "Yes, with my boyfriend" or "No, I've got no one to go with".
Take it from there.
Sorry to bring Kit back down to earth with a bump, but he's said he's no oil-painting, and he's also said that she's a hottie... Isn't it time he lowered his expectations a bit?
Just concoct an imaginary fantasy about her and hold on to it for the next 10 years. The sex will be far better that way too
And you also get to keep the house. ๐
throw a kitten at her?
a @@@k like a sheeps heart on top of a tin of vim
So much wrongness on this thread, but only one totally devoid of a soul could fail to find amusement in it all.

Ah, have a bit more confidence in yourself mate! He might have a fantastic personality, and apparently women are more attracted to a man's personality than his looks. Apparently.
Mind you, if he needs to ask for advice on here, then he's ****ed. Poor sod.
Faint heart never won fair lady, or something like that.
I'm guessing I might be the 'mate' in question. Forget engineering situations - I'll ask her for you. And if she really is as cute as she looks as she blurs past me every morning I'll see if she's keen on 3-in-bed, yeah? Nice.
I'd consider myself BOBFOC
Which bay you talking about, Torness? Where the sun don't shine and nuclear waste outweighs seawater? ๐
No one suggested the all in one skin suit yet with her face printed on the front and "Will you go out with me?"
daveatextrem... approach is making GeeTee's look shoddy and amateur - he should hang his head...
Thanks, I feel more like a stalker now ๐
Its all planned like a military operation
I approach from the north, arriving at gate B at 17:18
I've worked out she must work at an industrial unit at Clayford Farm, leaving at 17:15. Sometimes she's early and beats me to it, but the plan is to wait at Gate A where she can't see me. When I hear tyres on the gravel road, that's my cue to open the gate and pretend to look surprised.
You're not Dave of GeeTee fame are you?
No.
Why not just crash head on into her. HARD. Whilst tumbling through the air deftly cut a lock of her hair. You can then stick it on a bald Barbie doll and kiss it at home in your own time.
Dig a hole across the cycleroute and fill it with your body, as she rides over you call out your love for her!

Not even with your stunt-cock, matey! But sure, ask away ๐
Is there a billboard you could hire? Nothing says I love you like hiring a billboard.
I'm a "whichever part is facing me" man
Yup; so long as the part facing me isn't a feature on Google Earth.
your all pussy footing about the bloke'll never get anywhere like that.
Just pull up next to her look her strait in the eye & ask "Do you want to go halves on a bastard"
You'll soon find out if she has a sense of humour (or any concealed weapons)
Sit on the towpath with your bike sprawled all over it. In your arms, you cluch a dead animal (preferably cute). You wail "WWWHHHHHHYYYYYYYYYY????!!!"
Tears are rolling down your face as you do so.
If she is a Veggie, you are in
How about asking if she minds you tagging along rather than whizzing past? Pootle and chat for some days then chloroform and zip ties to seal the deal!
No offence OP shes probably just being friendly.
I know most STW'ers will think even a friendly 'hello' or smile from the opposite sex instantly means that they are interested as they probably equate 'not interested' as a look of disgust.
The fact that you asked the question in the first place puts you in the above category. Sorry. ๐
LOL at this thread. I had a 3 year relationship with somebody I met in exactly the same circumstances about 15 years ago.
I just stopped alongside her one day said 'nice bike' she said 'thanks' I asked her where she'd got it etc, etc.
Two days later she was making me a cup of tea whilst I put a new cassette on for her.
Then we shagged.
Awesome story, brought a tear to my eye *sniffs*
Then we shagged.
What tires for shagging?
Never has a new cassette sounded so, well, [i]filthy[/i].
Fantastic.

At least it wasn't a star fangled nut!
Sorry to disappoint you all...but I'm reliably informed that my suspicion is incorrect.
So...to the advice. Forget all the 'advice' about bilboards and kittens etc. You're going to have to talk to her. "Excuse me..." is not a bad starter, but after that you're on your own.
Oh, if you wear glasses of any sort when you ride your bike, take them off before you talk to her!
[i]I can think of a lass I know who cycles along there[/i]
so do i, as i mentioned earlier, and i have her phone number ๐
that whitesheet plantation map is scaring me as i was riding there on monday!
Excuse me
Closely followed by
Does this smell like chloroform to you?
Why can't you just go over and introduce yourself politely? Pay her some compliments like ... nice bike, nice saddle, nice helmet, nice seatpost, nice ... etc ... Just avoid saying nice TT ...
If she does not like it then move on ... it's a probability game.
๐
Just ride alongside her with your man slug out. works like a charm
Trust me, i'm a doctor.
[i]Just avoid saying nice TT [/i]
is it offensive to mention her top tube?
is it offensive to mention her top tube?
not as long as you refrain from offering to check the tightness of her bottom bracket..
or the internal diameter of her seat tube..
I'll get my coat.. sorry ๐ณ
"So, who's your favourite out of Bergerac?"

Yes 15yrs ago I was still technically a man in the eyes of the law. The vaginal-surgery had nicely heeled and you were my first (considerate) lover.
Thank you 8)
this has got to be the best thread I've seen on here.
The Strange Sexual Encounters thread does come close though
Hilarious thread! C'mon Kit get a move on i want to know what you say and which hand she slaps you with when she finds a sudden rush of male cyclists blocking her route to work ๐
Ask her if she likes kippers. She'll shout loudly 'what'?
If she mishears she'll never ride down that way again (she probably thought you meant strippers)..
If she heard you she might also like those delightful fishes for breakfast.
Sorted.
"So, who's your favourite out of Bergerac?"Works every time.
Love it - I think I'll try this one in future.
So Kit, you have to tell us how you get on. And if you don't get far, there's a guy called geetee in Surrey who's also looking for love. Or a guy named Dave, whichever comes first. As it were
Dont you just love this thread? I havent laughed so much since i got divorced! I'm in f?cking tears here!

If it doesn't work use a hammer instead ๐
Oh, if you wear glasses of any sort when you ride your bike, take them off before you talk to her!
Bugger, I might crash into her if I do that? Oh wait... ๐
Hora - Even if I would. They'd have to be slimmer and better looking than you.
Thank you 8)
make sure you rig up a video camera in your room just in case.
I'll get back to my jill dando book.
Have you got a helmet cam you could wear when you meet and introduce yourself.
My Mum has watched Coronation Street since it's started, what a waste of time.. (seriously, in my eyes) she should have just read this thread
Anyway, this Thread is useless without Pics, both of the OP, and the lady in mind.
It's been going on so long, you'd be classed as a stalker in some countries by now
My Mum has watched Coronation Street since it's started
Since 1960??
Blimey.
For a bonus point who can name the World's longest running soap opera?
No Googling please.
The Archers? What do I win?
A lifetime of wondering how to ask out attractive ladies?
