If I wanted to offend someone, how would I do so?

Hmmmmm...

Blow a raspberry?
F*rt in their general direction?
Insult their bicycle?

Claim they are not a real cyclist

Harsh!!

Tell them their mode of transport is a BSO

Didn't @Drago have an "agony aunt" type thread a while back. That's the man to ask! His answers were 100% right, or wrong, I can't remember which. He's your man for sure.

There's plenty of them on here.

I generally find that posting a viewpoint that someone else doesn't agree with is very successful. Freedom of speech can be a novel concept on here sometimes.

I'm not a real cyclist but I sure do love my cycling.

What is a real cyclist?

I tried surreal cycling once, but the cloud burst.

What is a real cyclist?

Someone who rides in one of those posses and terrorises us slowies as we pootle about in the lanes on a Sunday morning. It used to happen a lot up the A1000 and the lanes through to Hertford, when I lived in that part of the world.

Some years ago on a nice day I was walking across town back home in the afternoon. I stopped at a pub in a quiet part of town I'd only been in a couple of times.
I walked up to the bar and ordered a Guinness.

'Hey salty seadog'
The barmaid said
'long time no see, you're looking well'.

I then realised it was the sister of an ex girlfriend of mine.

In all sincerity I replied,

'Your looking pregnant.'

Silence ensued as she slipped out the back.

I downed the quickest Guinness ever and left within seconds.

That's how it's done.

True story.

Why don't you just say something bad about my Mother? (You get bonus points for the film too)

@derrick - they thought they were real cyclists, imagining that they were in the TdF riding three abreast through Potters Bar ignoring all traffic and riding way too close to other cyclists. I could name the clubs which were the worst offenders but there are people on here would get offended...........

I doubt they would worry to much.
