[Closed] What should i have said?

In true typhoo styleeee

' can yer ride t'tandem?'

What should my witty comeback have been? Prize for the best.

Find a convenient drop, somewhere deep in the woods.
Ask her if she'll watch you huck it and then ring the ambulance if you end up in a pile of blood and mangled bones.
Then, as she runs away, scream "No, wait! Come back!"

sure, might be a bit big for you though

"me or the bike?"

"Of course, we all know ramblers should come first"

(Richard, surprisingly single)

"Do you think you can handle all 29 inches???" 😀

Yes

Edit: In answer to the lady ramblerist - not to maxtorque 😳

Something about needing a helmet

sorry... I didn't bring any protection.

[i]If you want to get near my bike you'll need to throw a leg over me first[/i]

Yeah, sure. Don't worry though, I've gone tubeless

Yeah, sure. Don't worry though, I've gone tubeless

Latex in the back end? Big and bouncy up front?

"It's quite big, do you think you'll be able to get your leg over?"

Hop on..

Aye, but just let me get it lubed first, then you can crank as hard as you like.

Have you got a helmet or do you want mine?

Yeah sure I'll give you a backie. You go in front.

Could be a ghost that would ride your bike away leaving you standing there looking like a tool. 😆

"Woooah, first off, what's your view on the Octavia VRS, death penalty, the spelling of 'espresso', are you a better driver than me and can you tell that I've shaved my legs?"

"Then, we can make suggestive innuendo"

Oh, you've gone.

^^ forget the shaving legs bit. In the two hours since I did it I've frightend off every female within 500 yards, including the cat.

Yes.

Were you riding a Cove?

You can ride me all day for 3 quid

You see if you'd got it bleached the day before, you would of bin like baby gurl you can ride with me any time, you sure you can handle the rough terrain back down to my vintage stealth Talbot camper (flicks out blade key) we can share a kale leaf and watch the sunset.

You should have performed a graceful 180 front endo, stood there facing her with a disarming lopsided Han Solo grin and just said 'now why would a nice guy like me let you do that?'

Sure, how hard a ride would you like to do.

Feign a stumbling falling off (presumingly you were off-road going slow) then stand up in shock.

(with a shocked and surprised voice)"But, but walker's don't talk to bikers!?!? Err, hi. (go to shake hand) I'm grum*, and you are.." (rest of conversation in normal voice).

And you're in 😀

* you may want to use your normal name here unless you want to come across as a weirdo.

Thanks everyone!

Have you got a helmet or do you want mine?

I think this might be the winner. 😀

Having given it much thought, "up the bum my Talbot camper" and a cheeky wink would have sealed the deal 😈

Yeah, why not but how about we do it over a drink later

"That's a bit rapey" then scream and cycle off.

Alternatively your best impression of this

followed by dropping your bike and getting off

Actions are better. Just extend your dropper

Is that intended as a double-entendre or are you suggesting we engage in sexual intercourse?

Of course, this is the 2014 Scott Genius, it's got 110-150mm progressive travel out back paired up with a fox tlas 34 for the optimal combination of weight and lateral stiffness, I'm currently running 1x10 with a 42 tooth extender so i can wriggle up even the steepest climb with a 34 balckspire narrow wide on the from to give that extra pace on the downs, the bars are raceface C models again to save weight and minimise trail buzz with a bang on tren 25mm stem, wide and short - keeps i all incheck when I'm.....Oh you've killed yourself.

"Only if You go on top"

edit: or you could have just cut to the chase with "No, but you can have a shag!"

Sorry, I don't ride a Cove.

"Absolutely! I'm not carrying this sticky rubber around for myself!"

or

"Just let me twiddle my knob for a minute; I've been running quite a lot of sag lately."

or

"Ignore that, It's lithium grease."
