Trail Honey

[shootingstar]

I saw this guy on my ride today and we both stopped and chatted for a while. How do you pick up a guy when you're two ships passing in the night or in this case two bikes passing on the trail?

Maybe I should get some cards made.

You: Would like to hear more about your trip afterwards over a coffee or would that bother your girlfriend?

I know-- pretty blatant and fishing around. But he would understand..

[Skierchickie]

No way, Zen! Where is his helmet? You've been swept up in his hotness, and missed his obvious flaws.

Ooh! Fabian Cancellara just flashed his chest at me!

[Zen]

I did notice how clean his stuff looked...and he said the towpath was muddybut note the trailer does have a fender.
I noticed the lack of helmet too but sometimes you just have to overlook small flaws Beleive me, I noticed everything.


Shootingstar, that's a good line.

Excellent collective brain as always. I've already put a small notepad in my bag for next time

[lph]

Oooh. Zen, he likes you. But don't worry, this one's just practice. Keep your camera and your "hey, this turned out nice! Give me your email and I'll send you a copy"-line ready and you'll be reeling them in

[Zen]

my ask is sore from kicking myself

[Trek420]

Don't kick yourself Ride on, if it is meant to be it's meant to be.

If you don't see him again it's a fun memory of "the one that got away" and practice for when you will meet the right one.

Back in the day when I was single and looking I was just a leetle bit skeptical of the one with that perfect line for any occasion, knowing just what to say or do to get a gals number. Just a leetle bit too practiced for my book.

Don't worry about not having got his e-mail or number, the fact that you didn't is charming. Stay that way.

[sfa]

Which way was he headed? Maybe have someone stalk the other end of the towpath to keep an eye out for him?

I like the "hey, give me your email so I can send you a copy" line. That's a good reason to always keep a camera with you!

But...he only has one fender, and there is no mud slung up from the other tire....and none of his tires have a speck of mud on them.

He seems 'bikey', which is good. But I have to admit there is something in his eyes that activates my warning antennae.

Mine, too.

[Zen]

If the towpath is muddy the fenders and the rider and socks would be muddy. His socks are sparkling white.

I looked at the towpath, it didn't look muddy to me. It was likely the section he did the night before, then you can jump over to pavement for 20 miles. I'm very observant and no dummy. Well, for the most part anyway.

Those are stars. Like when Davey Jones would see a girl and his eyes would go all wacky

Wonder if he lurks on TE?

[TsPoet]

If you look at his gear, it isn't new. It's been used, but is in good shape.
So, I think that he's a neat and clean individual on a bike tour, and that's a non-sequitur, but nothing wrong with it.

I dunno, Zen. Honesty is hot, and something does not add up, or he changed socks for you?
