Something very odd happened on this evening's ride!
I was out on some quiet lanes up on the local hills...
A taxi went by and a little boy leaned out of the nearside passenger window, waved at me, and called out something (which I didn't quite hear).
An hour later a
different taxi went by and a
different little boy leaned out of the nearside passenger window, waved at me, and called out something (which I didn't quite hear that time either).
Another 30 minutes passed and I heard a vehicle come up behind me on a singletrack road, so I pulled into a passing place to let it overtake me. It was a
third taxi which went by and a
third little boy leaned out of the nearside passenger window, waved at me, and called out something (which I
still couldn't didn't quite hear).
These were not places that you would normally see taxis in and I don't tend to get little boys waving at me!
When I got home I checked to make sure that my shorts were not ripped at the back! ("
Hey mister, yer bum is hanging outta yer shorts!"
