Ha, ha, that's pretty funny. Well, I haven't fainted on the road, but I've felt like it.

I've not allowed my golden hair to flow down my back. ummmm, oh yes, I don't HAVE long hair. Or golden hair. Wheww, glad I never broke THAT one

I'm ALWAYS a fright( in my cycling attire). No gettin' around it...

Other than not wearing a garden party hat with my bloomers I’m good with all those don’ts

oooOOOhhhh and…it's so good to see the land of coquetry and love of admiration on 'The Map of the Open Country of a Woman’s Heart' is soooooooooo big

And with every man I know! ^^

What is a 'bicycle face' and how would I cultivate one?

[Eden]

lol… I promise to never wear a garden party hat with bloomers, I've never fainted, much less on the road and I don't believe I've ever worn white kid gloves. The rest I've probably already broken so

I actually found that list pretty heartening :-). Some women were obviously already having a blast breaking unwritten rules of how a woman was supposed to behave. I can just imagine a turn-of-the-century lady racing the "scorchers", contesting the right of way with cable cars, and boasting of her long rides, in loudly hued (or matching) clothing :-D

That list would make a great poster for my office!

I don't usually scream when I see a cow. I tend say, "hi cows!" and moo at them

I don't say hi, but I do moo at them. Have no idea why.

I do this too! My husband thinks I'm ridiculous. I say hi to horses, goats, sheep, etc., too.

[Dragonfly5]

So either I'm not crazy or we're ALL crazy because I moo at cows too! lol

Another mooer here!
