It's ok BRLVR.v2, I've printed this thread out and I carry a copy in my saddle bag. If the girls react badly I simply show them what Apple told me to do.BRLVR.v2 wrote:That's advocating an invasion of someones privacy and borderline stalker behaviour.Apple wrote: Stop by the side of the road, take the photos when they ride past.

That’s why you will succeed. Every woman likes a guy with a sense of humour.

I hate being sweaty. But I know what you mean and where you are coming from. Sweaty = shower. And showers are fun.gorilla monsoon wrote:Arkle, stop being a desperate. Summer, tell your partner the after-ride ride is fantastic when you are both sweaty and the endorphines are off the clock.

was watching this video from Cannondale when it got to the part of the clip with Cameron Wurf. Mrs C+W couldn't help herself and commented "Nice body!"
My response: "I look like that"
Alas, her response (far too quickly): "No you don't"

I actually think you may have a better chance using your artistic skills, Arkle. Most ladies love a man who can draw.arkle wrote:That's right, rub it inrjk wrote:best thread ever , as an older guy, love it.
