Hot chicks <3 trackstands.
lol my girlfriend does that all the time when we’re out together not on bikes. To annoy me.
An older man was in the passenger seat while his son was learning to drive, but instead of helping his son through a busy intersection he wound his window down and shouted at me. I had to take my earphones out and ask him to say again, he was just asking what it was, I said FUJI TRAAAACK (my bike is fucking boring) and he shook his hands all upside his head and said AHHH its BLOOOODY BEAUTIFUL.
Only in Australia.
The other day I saw a dude on a white track bike with risers and green grips, a green front spOk and rear green V.
As he rode by, his chain buzzed loudly like a hive of angry bees.
I yelled, “Your chain is too tight!”
And he looked at me like I was a crazy asshole.
I find falling over gets you way more attention.

so does pulling out your dick in the eatons centre, but its all a matter of good or bad attention.
and yeah i sually start with “nice bike!” of theyre on the road ill scream FICK-SEE!!! at em…
i like leaving my bike at the bike rack at school, coming back from the library and seeing 2 more fixed gear bikes locked right next to mine
it’s cute.
i love leaving my bike at the bike rack at school, coming back and seeing my bike knocked over 5 walmart mountain bikes squished in around it.
it’s cute.
i seem to attract only creepy gay dudes. the other day i was leaving the bank and this guy tells me he was liked my fender. it’s one of those plastic ones that clamp onto your seatpost. so nothing cool at all but he starts telling me how sexy the shape is…i rode off quickly.
another time i was filling my bag up with groceries and this dude comes up to me and seems amazed that i can fit it all in my bag. he comments about how heavy it must be and that it must hurt my shoulders…then tells me that he is a masseuse and that i should come in some time for a massage. i say no thanks and hop on my bike and then get followed by him in his VAN. i know he’s following me because i took a couple turns that made no sense just to make sure and once i was sure i dipped down a one way the wrong way to lose him. creep bastard.
LOL, he wanted his way with your pooper.
I always scream BIIIIIIIIKESSS!!! whenever I’m with a group on bikes passing another group on bikes. Other than that I don’t really chat random people up about thier bikes except maybe on the train. The questions and comments I get on my tallbike can be downright anoying if I’m in a hurry, people literally follow me to my house to ask about it.
I was walking my tallbike downtown one night and this car full of frat brahs rolls by. One of them says to the driver “STOP THE CAR! I wanna see how he gets on that thing!” So they stop and just stare at me as I keep walking. Eventually traffic started backing up as I pretended not to notice them, and they resigned to driving away sans having experienced a display of tallbike-mounting.
I yell “TARCK” at tarck bikes. Noone compliments me at all about my bikes. The super tarcky hipsters that lock up at my school always try and make eye contact with me, I guess to talk about how tarcky we all are and share some PBR. I just ride off.
I used to make a point to yell at people taking part in sporting activities, ie. the other day we were riding in a group and i saw a guy half assedly hitting a tennis ball with a baseball bat for his dog to run and get while his overweight significant other watched on (dude was a bit portly as well) so I yelled “BASEBALL!!! I FUCKING LOVE BASEBALL!!!” as we rode by.
you ride your tallbike in a hurry? thats awesome.
I was at a red light tonight waiting for it to change… (sensor didnt catch me this time), and a young guy on a moped comes up beside me, tells me he likes my bike… then proceed to take off thru the red light.
He almost got hit by a car coming around the corner…

That sucks.
I really respect mopeds, they are like our misfit brethren.
what kind of bottom bracket is that?
the other night i ended up at some weird impromptu punk rock show on a pedestrian bridge at 1 am with a girl. i was walking my cannondale (full geared road bike) past this crowd of 16-17yo FIXIE KIDZ looking for a place to post up so we could sit down and drink, and this kid says “that’s not a fixie!” his fellow bandana’d brother says “i know, what the fuck?”
all i could do was stare at them with this confused look on my face. i was at a total loss for words. still kinda confused about it.
You should have fought all of them. When you beat all of them down you could have then sat them down and had a little heart-to-tarck with them about the bikes and the bees.That would have impressed your lady friend too.
