My guy did something similar. We were on a trip, sitting on the airplane with a stranger next to us. My BF said something along the lines that I could power up the hills with my 'thunder thighs'. I could see the guy next to us just squirming, then start laughing and he wondered out loud something about seeing how my guy was gonna get out of this one!
On the flip side, I was doing a century a few weeks ago, and one of the SAG guys said something like I didn't look like a century rider. What the heck does that mean? I had no comeback, but my BF said that neither did the SAG guy! He recovered by saying that I was looking all fresh and happy. Yeah, whatever.

I have never decided whether this was a stupid action or not, but last year while I was riding a very narrow singletrack I pulled over for a couple of guys to pass me. When I'm on a narrow ledge I hate having someone behind me so I had called back to them that I'd pull over as soon as I could.
As they passed, the last one said "Thanks, sweetheart!" Normally, I would bristle at an absolute stranger, a male, calling me sweetheart especially in a athletic activity. For some reason, the way he said it just made me laugh. Both guys were quite a bit younger than I so I just reasoned that from the rear I don't look as old as I think I do.
I told my group about the story and they spent the rest of the day calling me sweetheart. It was pretty silly.Frends know gud humors when dey is hear it. ~ Da Crockydiles of ZZE.
