To clarify the above for @clubman (and I respectfully assure you not at all a criticism of your dialect and its roots in cycling) - the current meaning of roadman is inner city lads, possibly but not exclusively involved in gang-related activities, basically.

My family tell me the gang thing isn’t necessarily the case. I’m not so sure.

Thanks for the clarification, that's certainly interesting. I'll try it out on my 29 year old son who grew up in Bow E3.

I am increasingly aware that my use of language, which I thought was standard English, is becoming a dialect.
