I have a horse, run, fence, practice taekwondo, sail, skateboard, work out, AND bike. Thankfully whoever I'm talking to finds at least ONE interesting, but sometimes it just goes over people's heads.
I was talking to a friend after class, when I mentioned I should drive home before it gets dark. Once he determined that I meant my BIKE:
"Don't you have a car?"
"I'm not wasting gas driving when there's a bike lane the whole way here!"
"Uh, can't you take the bus?"
"I don't do busses. Huh, mine's the only bike on the rack, today..."
"Yeah, that's because it's MINUS TWENTY!"
Now whenever I mention a bike he just shakes his head and walks off. This is a magician who sticks Q-tips in his nose for fun, calling ME crazy...
