Following a bloke home for a bit tonight (black langster, yellow bartape on bullhorns) and his rear wheel was a bit out of true. Nothing major.
When we slowed to let a bus out I saw his chain was really slack, so I was about to pull alongside and mention it & the rear wheel, but then I suddenly thought to myself that I was going to come across like a right twat. So I didn't say anything & went on my way.
So...can you give a bit of friendly advice like that or not? It could potentially have been dangerous, but most likely he had just not been bothered to do it.
