Memories abit hazy but I’m ‘hoping’ there was abit more not mentioned however its not inconceivable that two people had a different take on a conversation in their heads.
“Please be kind” = please be cruel. Stop wasting time on here. Don’t dive in to mtb straightway especially dont ask her for a ride 😉 will most probable be misconstrued!!
Just say hello in a natural manner. As others have said, females are not monsters (well mostly), don’t bite (ditto) and actually like to have a normal chat.
Don’t waste any more time. Over analysis will make you awkward. Just be yourself – oh and good luck!!
p.s. Commit to no more posts here until you have spoken to her.
Binners, it’s like a little self help group, it’s just reassurance that in fact, you all turn out to be a little bit shit at asking girls out. it’s funny, your all so knowledgeable about all sorts of weird stuff, but when it comes to just “Hi, Im Brycerw, fancy getting a coffee?” everythings goes tits up!! LOL
Anybody else at work that rides bikes? Ever go out riding bikes with other people at work?
Why not organise an ‘office’ bike ride. Any trail centres near, potentially with bike hire, that would appeal to all abilities? That way you invite everybody that works there to keep it inclusive, marketing it as ‘work social type crap’.
Or restrict it to those people you know are into riding bikes, including the odd one that’s into ‘the outdoors’…

Woman in making-sense shocker!
Yep, blokes are terrible. Then again, my experience of women is that they’re just as bad. Many years ago a particular co-worker wanted to get my attention, so she dressed slightly less conservatively and kept walking part my office.
After a month I asked her out – her intention – but I’d been worrying that I was misreading signals, whereas she thought that short of putting “Oi! Come and grab me!” on a placard she couldn’t have been more obvious.
I love going out on my bike, but frankly I’d crawl a mile over broken glass to avoid an ‘office bike ride’. Also, I’d regard anyone who even suggested such a thing as someone to be avoided at all costs 😉
But what if he’s successful and its all going really well? suddenly he finds himself lumbered with a load of additional hangers on, wobbling around on hire bikes in Llandegla car park. He may even end up having to give Fat Julie from accounts a lift to A&E after she fell off outside the cafe 😀
Julie from accounts used to love it! Though she doesn’t talk to me any more. In fact, it was after the whole ‘incident’ she started putting the pounds on
binners, if I wrote you a note could you pass it on to Julie next time you see her as I can get a bit flustered in her presence.
And her shape, that’s not her fault, it just glandular.
