Bicycle dates

[Trek420]

It's difficult to combine the two: date and bike ride but I plan an attempt today in Golden Gate Park, we'll see how this goes....hmmm.

It is hard to find friends to ride with: ride style, speed, fitness level, fun to talk to at the rest stop and or drink uhm recovery food afterward....I feel sooooo lucky to have this community and a local bike club.

Just try to find that plus uhm elusive chemistry.

What Grog sed~it can be an indicator. As we say in Aikido "you're the same on the mat as you are off the mat" so it is on a bike "you are the same on a bike as you are off the bike".

Add the ego thing if you ride/climb better than your date or they you...I dunno if it can be done.

so....looking for some input from the coupled TE'ers: if your SO rides which came first-the significant other or the bike?

Do mixed marriages (bikers with non bikers) work?

I think we've covered this before but not in a while and not in this way.
