If someone is just blowing his or her snoz we probably won't say anything, but both hubby and I ask anyone and everyone regardless of gender, size, polka dots or stripes, if they need anything. I think everyone that I typically ride with does the same thing. It's just courtesy. If we can't immediately identify why they're off the bike, they get asked. We even ask if they have a tool in hand because some folks have tools but haven't a clue how to use them. It's a group effort to get everyone from start to finish. I gave a guy a tube yesterday and when I rode up on him he was pretty much the standing in the shade on a decent. He didn't look in stress at all but I asked anyway. Good thing I did. His tubes and patches were still in the car in the bag the shop put them in and he was hoping for a SAG to find him. But he got moi!
I guess the words "do you need anything" rather than "are you OK" may be better received?
