YES - Double Scalp To Open My Account

[ACS]

I was glad to get scalped this evening, nipped out for a quick 10 miler before the light faded and was struggling into a light head wind that felt like a gale, a hill I normally glide up was like climbing Alp D'huez and I was resigning myself to life with a beard and a Dawes when a rather petite and attractive lady cyclist swept past me and all of a sudden my legs started working again strange that…..

.....sudden my legs started working again strange that…..

All three of them?

All three of them?

Sadly no, still breaking in the B17 .

It's usually me who gets overtaken.

However I took great delight a few months ago in passing a couple of trendy teenagers on supermarket specials on my Raleigh 20

I got overtaken by a roadie on Wednesday morning, going uphill with my two panniers and he cruised past. But he didn't seem to pull away and I was thinking, yeah not so fast are you. Then we got to the top of the hill and he just vanished. Pulled away from me so fast that I couldn't even catch up to his dust trail to let me eat it!!!!

I have to keep my speed down, like Concorde did as there are complaints about the sonic boom, so I keep it below 20.

I did scalp a roadie the other day, he is from our place and has not cycled since last September, so he was going along Chelford road, perhaps 15/16 mph minding his own finding his legs again, so with a heroic effort on my part of ego over fitness I cranked it up to 25 mph and blew past with a cheery "Mornin mate"

I got to work and scuttled into the showers so he didnt see my panting like a bastard, to continue the avaiation theme it was like a Spitfire that in WW2 could use full supercharger to get away from enemies but only for a limited time and it required a new engine afterwards.

I'll try to race anyone and everyone, but I particularly like to beat RLJs, especially if they over-take while i'm a stationary but law-abiding citizen, its one the best gloats of all.

I keep scalping a lady on my commute - once down hill and once coming up the drag.....

Said "Hello" to her at the lights...."oh nice bike" she said... "Oh thanks"....B).......I hope she didn't think I passed her just cos my bike was nice....

I do like catching RLJ'ers - catch, pass, stop, jump, catch, pass, stop, jump........................B)

Plenty of fun to be had with that one in the city centre, I find.

Sounds like fun .. alas, a lack of traffic lights - let alone RLJs - on my route denies me that simple human pleasure. Course, even if they were there I might struggle to catch them .. B)B)
