Best thing said to you on a bike

turpe My wife, bless her, finishes work at around 930pm. I go to meet her on my bike and then walk her home. We live in San Francisco and, one night, she jumped on a handy bus to go up a steep hill for around 3 blocks, and I just rode up the hill. When the bus got to the top of the hill (about 30secs after me, with no stops - ha!), she got off and told me how a couple on the bus were 'ooooh'ing and 'ahhhh'ing over my superhuman efforts and the guy told his ladyfriend that I probably did that kind of thing all the time and I must be one of those hardcore messenger types and that we're all crazy. I'd been in the US for about six weeks at that time.
That is pretty impressive, those SF hills are painfully steep, not sure I could make one on a fixed!

Some guy yelled at me that I'll never get a boyfriend riding a bike...

was it Mike?

Very good hippy! LOL.

Forgive me Father for I have sinned.

I once had some dude stick his arm out in front of face when I'd just schlepped up that never-ending slope from Clerkenwell road onto Theobalds road. I was immediately behind a patrol car getting to that Zebra before Lamb's Conduit st cop house. The Cops didn't stop for this dude waiting at the zebra. There was no one behind me. I kept going (well I was on a bmx). He stuck his arm out, and pulled it back just as I was about to hit it. He practically shat his pants when I U-ed, jumped off the bike and ran after him with my bike over my head. I ran up to him screaming my head off and then slammed the bike down on the floor just missing him.

Maybe I overreacted. And I think I cracked the pedal spindle, which I found out, painfully, later. Karma.

Cops came back to see what the fight was about and they were pretty nice actually, considering I was being right threatening.

And I once chased a car that cut right across me and clipped my front tyre (thankfully I stayed upright). I stopped next the driver door and opened his door shouting 'HOW DO YOU LIKE IT WHEN I INVADE YOUR SPACE, FUCKER??' He nearly pooed himself too.

10 Hail Marys

I had some guy this morning yell "Hey dude nice bike!" which is funny coz the Ribble isn't that nice.. guess I just look damn sexy in my kit..

Some woman on the way back from club-run tonight was crossing with two walking sticks. I was 10-20m away and spotted her before she'd even moved onto the crossing. I was doing about 2kph about to roll into a track stand when she flips out and screams "ARGH STOP STOP!" and then mumbles some swearing (I guess after realising If I stop any earlier I would've been in another borough!).
I said "I hope you weren't talking to me like that.." followed shortly thereafter by "you rude bitch".

when taking my bike in through the reception at work some fat lardy arsed manager thinking he was being amusing saying ' get off and milk it' , Ha fcking ha! he has to get the lift up to the 1st floor cause he's too lazy to walk, too much fcking red wine and resturant food.

I don't even get that? Is he suggesting your bike is a cow or something? What kind of sheep-shagger joke is that?

i think its meant to mean you are riding an old crate or you look so sad on that you might as well be riding on a cow. i hadn't thought of the sheep shagging angle.........hmmmmmmm.

I got called a "show off" as I skid-stopped at some lights, by a guy doing the best wannabe fixed-gear impression possible without actually sorting out his fucking drivetrain: Old blue raleigh, polished drops with bmx lever and no back brake. rusty 10spd drivetrain still in full effect. No-skid inferiority complex perhaps?

By the way this was in cambridge, give us a shout if you're a lurker on here waiting to take the plunge properly ;)

Because we want to ridicule you.

i think in every cab rank they have a picture of hippy, with a hit at all costs title!!
