Bike naked. That'll get some attention.
At least, um, that's what I've heard.
:P
Roxy - glad you got out there and rode anyway. Good for you!

Wait till you forget to unclip because a stop sign is there and a small dog is chasing you, and then you fall off your bike into the grass in a ditch and can't get up without help because you are pinned down with your bike on top of you. Meanwhile the dog wanders away confused. Then you might could look around to see if anyone was watching. That is, after you check the bike to make sure it's ok.
That's one way to stop a dog from chasing you. :rolleyes:
I found another good one the other day. I was past the "danger area" for the dog when it lit out after our group, but it was heading for some of the other riders behind me, so I hollered "Dog Left!"
And the dog left. :p
"Get a job" seems to work pretty well, too. Maybe it's just that a command to the dog tends to have some anxiety in the tone of voice?
DH says I only crash in front of other cyclists. If you are going to wipe out, it's a very helpful group. They'll pick you up, fix your bike and send you off with a "it happens to all of us!"
Glad you got in your ride:)
Like Zen says, Who cares?! If I cared, I wouldn't leave the house in spandex with a buff under my helmet, ill-matching sunglasses and a camelbak. It's all functional, even though I look like a goof!
I love that movie!!! I want my two dollars!!Quote:
