Is this going to turn into another RLJing thread :?
I didn't say anything to hte cyclist in a high-viz vest cycling on the pavement in the opposite direction to the traffic...
He wasn't wearimng a helmet, so a pretty odd attitude to safety too.
There, Porgy, I've rescued this from RLJing in cool teeshirts. :twisted:0 -

I passed a guy on a carbon TT bike, full kit, shaved legs, on my 74" fixed (I had rucksack & baggies) - he then tailed me for some miles - about 8-9 miles.... We separated at one point, then I saw him again going for the long drag to home. My light's then changed about a minute later........passed him again on the climb and I shouted a cheery "Hello again"....this time he said 'oh no' and started laughing. Anyway got into a conversation at the top of the hill, now stuck in traffic. He lives near me, commutes the same way, from Poland, and we are planning on a few weekend spins - both sick of going out solo....

As a totally unfit guy I tend to be overtaken by nearly everyone, mostly guys in their mid 40s who glide up hills so elegantly as I fiddle around trying to stay upright, so one day when riding on a reasonable bit of road, I saw this guy about 500m ahead, and within a couple of minutes I'd got past him and powered away. I was astonished that there was someone slower than me, but I do enjoy my riding.... Thankfully about 25% of roadies acknowledge me so it's not totally lonely :PStart Weight 18st 13lbs March 2009

Said "roadie" on his Saracen road bike passed me on the flat....I was spinning out a bit!!
No self respecting Roadie would be on a Saracen! Sounds like he had issues with his own bike, that or he had Turrets0 -
Maybe you were getting in his way? After all single speeds shouldn't be on the road, they're kids bikes.0

Hmmm - I prefer a cheery hello, or "Alright mate".....Just a doff of the lid sometimes works too!0

As a Bristolian, I can assure you that "the word" sounds the same in our beautiful regional accent as it does in any other. Although the "t" might be virtual.
Perhaps he was indicating the next time you'll see him on that road, as in "see you next Tuesday"?!?!? :roll:
It's just a hill. Get over it.0 -
Well I got verbally abused by a lollipop lady today, don't think she called me a c**t as there were responsible parents nearby and I had my mp3 player on, shocking behaviour!All my life I've wanted to be someone; I guess I should have been more specific.0

maybe he had been cut up by this lot earlier in the day.
