Passed a 'bent rider at Elmers End today

[Twenty Inch]

Anyone on here? I said "Nice 'bent!" at the traffic lights before heading off into the country park.

Not me, day off today.

Aha! So you did! Thank you. I was on the big orange beastie (SMGTe) and laden down with two laptops in the pannier. You seemed somewhat more sprightly

 

[Twenty Inch]

That was you, indeed, great big comfortable looking orange thing. Nice - I've only ever had one other CycleChat hit in real life, and the bugger (ianrauk) didn't wave, even though I was wearing my CC jersey.

Hello again. First sight, then posts, now words exchanged. Where will it end?

When you rolled up behind me dinging, I thought you were buzzing me to get out of the way so you could filter down between the cars infront. It looked awful narrow, and I had hoped to be treated to the slightly satisfying sight of you bouncing off the wing mirrors.

Until the next time,

Andy.

But did make up for it by buying you a beer or a coke, feck it I can't remember..

That's cos you didn't. Oh no, you did, you bought me a coke in that pub we stopped at. Thank you! See that, Allsop, that's the sort of behaviour we like to encourage.

That was my last recreational ride, you know. How depressing.

For the record, I am more than happy to have Ian buy me a drink.
