Apache Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 i ride a total of 40 km's to work and back on my mtb every day and this is the outcome of friendly greetings along the way: mtb: 100% roadies: 20% WHY????
Sammajoor Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 Maybe the World Champ funride should change its name ......................... to the World Champ Bitch Session
GFishy Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 Samma, You know that the WC will win that no contest
GFishy Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 But still love the WC... Wonderful place. Even if the roadies don't greet some people
Like-A-Boss Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 You didn't list triathlete's as a percentage - that would be sure to make us roadies look a little better
DRIVETRAIN Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 I'm a Roadie -- & often don't get a response greeting from my fellow "Roadies" Most of 'em are arrogant !!! - Too good to greet !!! IGNORE THEM !!! "DT"

JMK1 Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 Got to agree unfortunately! I'm a roadie and often ride alone on saturday morning's randburg area and lot of roadies don't even look in your direction.I'm a newbie can't figure this? Jon
JPW# Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 Can't greet everyone in the WC on training rides, I pass 150 bikers, u cant greet everyone, ull never train, ull just greet !

Cos u on a MTB bike ... if u were commuting an on-road bike yr stats would have been reversed! Nope. I do or have done both and that's definitely not the case. Whether on my MTB or RB roadies simply does not greet. But then again when out trail riding most XC-racers out training and not just riding for the fun or love of it also does not greet. Must take serious effort...
Speed Devil Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 Roadies are too busy watching their HR and power readings to concentrate on things around them
MtBryda Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 My wife runs every morning between 04h15 to 05h15 and I cycle next to her on my mtb, riding on the pavements or side of the road, as little tar as possible.We greet everyone oher runner and cyclist we see BUT there are those roadies who just ignore us.Really stuck up fools.
