Part of the conversation with my potential manager this morning -

Me: What bike have you got?
Him: A Giant

Him: If you don't do sportives you're out!

Him: Would you ride a road bike or mountain bike to work?
Me: A Road bike, but it's only 7 miles to here so I could ride my 29er!

Feeling optimistic! 😀

He was letting you down gently.

You're the wrong sort of people.

I told him I object to paying to ride a road bike. He took it well 🙂

I was once asked, "Shimano or Campagnolo?" in a non bine industry interview.

Knowing that either answer had a fifty percent chance of going wrong, I said "SRAM".

Got the job.

Has he met you in a dark car park in the middle of nowhere, after briefly messaging each other on the inter web ?

as long as you continue to let him think that, you'll do fine.
