None of my mates are allowed

out to play .
Whats the point of being a grown up if your not allowed out to play on your bike

Go to Richmond Park, sunny day, there'll be plenty of cyclists to play with

No one talks to me over there . Maybe my lycra is too tight

 

[vickster]

And there's nothing worth seeing?

 

[Cuchilo]

Given that most of the riders over there are male I was rather hoping there wasn't a lot of looking going on

I'd play with you.....oh wait...

Play with yourself? I do it all the time- I can start and stop when I like, take photos if I choose and tell people all about it afterwards.

Nothing to be ashamed of, but possibly TMI in this context.

I'm sure there is ... followed by sniggering

I've given up on my mates, a couple have bikes but would probably need to plan in a ride a few weeks in advance. I can't exactly get out very often but when I can I just get out on my own. A very large majority of my riding is solo, about the only time i ride with company is the FNRttC outings.

@Cuchilo are you a member of a club? Must be a way to increase your pool of cycling mates. There are lots around SW London. You'll need one to use that TT Bike presumably

I tend to ride Solo a lot although, recently, my pool of fellow riders has improved and we get out together more. Having enjoyed this, I have signed up for the Swansea to Crystal Palace charity event in May. The group training will be as enjoyable as the event and broaden the group I ride with hopefully.

What do you mean by 'allowed'?

is it their other half that is refusing or that they have other commitments ie kids, work, etc.?

 

[mustang1]

Remember when I was a kid. I get a knock on the door
"Hey mustang, wanna go for a ride?"
"Yeah!"
And that was it.

These days, adults are too scared to just go on a whim and everything has to be "scheduled" (usually with the SO).

Dirty, dirty dirty!


Oh! Hang on, that's maybe down to my mind.
