On my way to work yesterday I was puffing my way up That Bloody Hill (not steep, but looooong) quite happily, albeit slowly. Suddenly a roadie in top-to-tail lycra zoomed past like I was standing still, with enough breath to throw me a cheery "morning!" too. Frankly, he scared the living daylights out of me - I think a little bit of wee came out... :biggrin: So, if that was anyone on here I'm sorry about the "Oh sh!t!" reply and the unexpected death weave. :smile:

Coming home from work today I was catching up with another cyclist pretty quickly. "My turn!" I thought, and pounced, ninja-like just as she wobbled to a halt in a lay-by. I stopped to make sure the lady rider was okay and she told me "Sorry, it's my first time on a bike for twenty years". That hardly counts as a proud victory, does it? :tongue:

My time will come. I'll overtake someone yet, if it kills me! :cheers:

Nah, black tights, multicoloured top with black sleeves and little black Village People hat. :cheers: Why, are you feeling guilty about something? :smile:


:biggrin:

(although I did pick up a wheelsucker early last week - overtook him and he then sat in all the way from Bramley Cross to Snipps Hill but wouldn't take a turn in front :tongue:) :bravo:
