So before you go back to your real 'friends' and talk poorly of BikeRadar and its interesting-willy-waving characters (LiT) again. Can we establish something. Does Sewinman stand a chance?TotalNewbie wrote:No they don't or else I have missed them. To my knowledge there has only been the Richmond Park ride/s and I gave that a miss because there is no way I am fast enough to do speedy laps of RP.
YACFers generally do fantastic rides on nice routes interspersed with fab pubs and good cake stops, so it's not a hard choice. The emphasis is usually on having a good time in good company rather than speed, mostly they are not 'training rides'. I am lazy so this appeals. Look on the rides and touring section on YACF for past and future rides if you are that interested, they are all documented!
And don't feel slighted, it's better here now than it was, but you have to admit for a very long time it was bloody dead here
(Jen J has organised a few months worth of rides to Isle of Wight and so forth. Though, apart from Richmond Park, I don't think they're for me.)
I actaully get what you mean, some people are all about speed, how fast they can go and getting faster. Others just want to ride there bike because the sensation and experience is the enjoyment itself and not the speed at which you ride. I'm somewhere between the two.
But its good you found a place that offers you both cycling and social interaction.biondino wrote:DonDaddyD wrote:Legally I'm not allowed to wave it around in public... as much I'd like to. I might take someones eye out. :shock:

Its the coming of the Apocalypse I tell you! Four cyclist on single speed steeds made from the bones and fingernails of people they've scalped. Its the end! The END!!!!

A true scalp is not only overtaking someone but leaving them stopped at a set of lights. As you, who have clearly beaten the lights, pummels nothing but the open air ahead. ~ 'DondaddyD'. Player of the Unspoken Game0 -
DDD, did you miss the part where I said I had a boyfriend, what kind of brazen two-timing hussy do you take me for?!0

Can you imagine if you didnt have a boyf and we actually got it on...try explaining that one!
"So i was cycling home and he fell on me (he was on a bike too) on the Mall and then posted a message about it on a bike forum commuting page, which i happen to post on too...." etc!
I should think people would have a quizzical expression to say the least!0 -

I don't, I actually think you're a cool measured straight up person with cool hair. Someone I could sit in the pub with have a drink and not be bored.
So let me rephrase. If you were single would Sewinman stand a chance.
Edit: Scratch that. In the situation that Sewinman found himself in when he toppled onto you. What could/should he have done to attempt to win your more than worthy heart?Food Chain number = 4

Yeah, that would make the very common 'how did you meet' question a bit awkward to say the least...

DDD dearie, I thank you heartily for your nice comments, I thought you had a girlfriend (that you have sexytime with and everything, as we all well know), so why are you so keen to pick up 'what to say after you've just fallen on a girl' tips?
(I only just saw your PM about Stockwell, by the way, I am always failing to see that I have PMs and ignoring people. Suffice to say no offence was taken.)0 -
Ahhhhhhh this is BRILLIANT!
Good stuff - and inter-forum chat on a different forum host!
Oh and I'm not one of the 'interesting characters'. I'm waaaaaaay too dull for that.0 -

Hey DDD - did you notice how she swerved the question!? *sob*
Totalnewbie - can you just say i would have a hypothetical chance, even if i wouldn't.0 -

Totalnewbie, must I post the long post and explanation.
In fact everytime I see someone wrongfully accuse me of talking about my sex life I'm posting this:You may have a problem with the following:I wrote:I had sex today.
I just want to throw that out there.... Mostly to establish that I'm still cool and reaffirm that this doesn't matter.
Anyway...
THIS WAS A JOKE and in no way goes into any great detail about what I do in my bedroom. The context of the discussion and my post was to infact drawn attention to the fact that near miss being actually a near miss and not a hit doesn't really matter.
To add:
If this was the sum total of what I could talk about as happening within my bedroom, I'd have a poor sex life indeed. If this is the sum total of your bedroom antics, then it sucks to be you.
I'm not ashamed that I get my OATS "on-da-regs" now that I've moved in with my girl. Really its not the sex that should be the problem its should be the detail and my infamous post was devoid of any.
The irony was, I didn't even have sex that day - I just said it for a joke - not sure why I didn't get me some. I did, however, MTFU the next morning though BELIEVE ME! Many people got scalped on the way to work afterwards as well!
Anyway,so why are you so keen to pick up 'what to say after you've just fallen on a girl' tips?
The topic of the thread.
Sewinman was asking advice about what he should have done. Your the girl in question. I thought it would be nice for you to give him some pointers so he can stop beating himself up with shoulda-woulda-coulda....(I only just saw your PM about Stockwell, by the way, I am always failing to see that I have PMs and ignoring people. Suffice to say no offence was taken.)
Given my imposed upon reputation, I figured you just thought I was being a creep. Glad no offence was taken. When I sobered up I felt kinda bad.Food Chain number = 4

Erm, what? Don't understand... I have no willy to wave... unless there's been a massive misunderstanding - you know that was a joke about me being a trucker called Dave, right? :shock:0 -
DDD, calm down dear, you simply cannot expect to throw out random comments like that and not have people take the proverbial. It's only right.
There there, what's done is done...no need for lenghty explanations...dear God.... :shock:
Sewinman, as I said before, the falling on me would not have ruined any hypothetical chance you may have had... As it was, I was mostly concerned with staying upright myself, which is why I can barely remember what you looked like - remember you turned away in self-hatred - how could I have checked you out if I'd wanted to?
Possibly laughing and making some comment about clipless moments or whatever would have diluted your embarrassment and been the start of your conversation, should you attempt to use this technique again on a different lucky lady As it was, I a) couldn't see what you looked like and b) got no insight into your personality whatsoever although you did get a point for saying sorry.
There, DDD, are you happy? Essentially similar to your advice, with some differences... :roll:0 -

I thought attending the SCR drinks would stamp out the vicious rumour that I'm a bloke that works down the docks called Kevin, but alas no, it was merely implied that I was wearing a cunning disguise... Damn you, whatever Greg started that... 0 -

GT I thought I told you at the SCR drinks: you CANNOT hope to remove that nasty rash by vacuuming it off. It simply won't work, and you'll end up in A&E. 0 -

Sorry. I find people falling over really funny for some reason (as long as it's not too serious!). Those 'had an accident at work' ads really get me...when the woman trips and goes flying....ha! And it was the way you got hold of my hand tickled me too...sorry I'll stop now.
Seriously though, if you had laughed along too (albeit in a redfaced manner) I'd have been laughing with you, not at you! :twisted:0 -

Round 2 of the Trek Marathon Series at sherwood pines.....
I roll into the main arena to talk to someone, start my conversation and gently keel over onto the mud whilst tugging at my SPD in a panic. As good fortune had it, someone in the commentary stand was watching and felt the need to point this out over the loudspeaker.0 -
Sorry Folks.
Went into an end-of year meeting with my Manager. I did what every good Marketing/PR/ bureaucrat type does... I blamed the IT department and then I blamed the Communications (PR) department.

Is everyone reading this Laurence the DONDADDYD knows how to whoo the ladies! And having seen Totalnewbie, WOW-WE!!!
Everyone should listen to me!
So everyone say it loud, say it proud. "I had s£x today!" Liberate the shackles of social repression, stick a middle finger up at the nay-sayers determined at keeping your sexlife borring. Embrace your inner freak and talk freely expressing what is on your mind thus pay homage to the fact that we are all human and when we go toilet, it will smell.
Rip your clothes and run in the streets wild and free. Wild and Free!
The revolution will not be televised!!!

Yes the note is probably the path to greater success. I just think not enough people are chatting each other up on a face 2 face basis. Nothing wrong with internet dating I just personally enjoyed the whole: see a girl, get butterflies in the stomach, bring your A game (try and chat her up).
It's like theres a trend towards: people are unobtainable unless you meet them on the net or they're over the age of 35 and have stopped caring.
Take my hat off to Sewinman for trying though a lot of guys would have looked from afar.TotalNewbie wrote:As for the rest of your last post....I am very much hoping that is also tongue-in-cheek. :shock:

I'm all about speaking my mind, being open minded and not being hindered but what others think or insist is socially taboo, usually because of their insecurities.
If I didn't follow the above I wouldn't have the life I have now, seen the things I've seen and probably have nevered ventured to the Mopeth to stand in conversations with Lawyers, ITBoffin's and the like.Food Chain number = 4
