Evens

 

[screenman]

Inside the hour.

 

[Crackle]

Chain's slack

 

[Smokin Joe]

"How far is the cafe?"

"I haven't trained at all this year."

 

[NorthernDave]

"It's pretty flat from here"

Or an even bigger lie

"It's all downhill from here"

 

[Sharky]

Put me back on my bike

 

[Shut Up Legs]

One for the obsessive hill-climbers: "What goes down must come up".

 

[rideswithmoobs]

All the gear, fark all idea

 

[JtB]

That's one I use, although a lot of pedestrians - and some cyclists - seem unable to grasp its meaning.

To be honest, "On your right" is not that helpful and I can see why it causes confusion. The way it's issued makes it sound like a command, but if it was a command then you would command them to move to the left instead (hence the confusion).

Every circular route is, on average, flat.

This reminds me of the payroll lady at work. Shes a runner. She was telling me of the circular route she does from her house, she was convinced it was uphill all the way round.

I suggested she ran it the other way round to check if that way was downhill all the way. Lol

At least she is ok at payroll!!

Thinking about it, I would usually say 'passing on your right'.

I suspect the listener doesn't always register the full phrase.

I might not if someone spoke to me out of the blue.

"I've never had a clipless moment"
"Get off and milk it"

 

[Nigel-YZ1]

As I sat fixing a puncture a bloke went buy and asked 'Want me to put a scab on that?'.
Not a bad phrase to come out with less than a mile from Cortonwood.

 

[Nigel-YZ1]

'Oi yer back wheels following your front one!'.

 

[Moodyman]

Weekend warrior.

Mamil.

Newbie.
