I had a ride out this morning and was really enjoying it. As I was nearing home I noticed that I was catching up with a guy riding what looked to me like a nice old bike. The rider was dressed in everyday clothes so I don't think that he had cycled in from any distance and assume that he was a local man. As I caught up with him I could tell that the bike was in pristine condition and could not help but admire it.I drew alongside and saw that it was a Woodrup road bike and as I passed, I said "nice Bike" . He replied F*** **F! I must have upset him somehow unless he was just having a bad day, whatever the reason it completely spoiled my morning.
 
my day was spoilt by the news Gerry Anderson (thunder birds) had died:sad:

Should carry a bag off pins under you seat with a rope to let them loose and pull it just after you've taken over him :smile: nobber

Rolling down the hills with the bike.
It could be worst right. Better then almost hitting someone on the bike and repling back 'WATCH WHERE YOUR GOING!' lol

Pity the bike ..... it has this poor excuse for a man on it.
Don't let a twat ruin your day EVER AGAIN!!!!
 
He probably thought you were a 'Lycra lout' taking the piss as you scalped him. Maybe if you'd have followed it up with one thing like 'No seriously, that's a Woodrup' isn't it?' he had been struck down with embarrassment and apologised.

Alternatively he was just a nobber.

It didn't spoil my day, but I had an unusual response from the only cyclist I saw all day. I was only doing about 12mph as I overtook and mentioned getting home in the failing light before we needed to switch on the lights. "if I don't die first" was his reply.:sad:
