This one made my morning last season (hello all & nice to meet you btw)..
Was out for my regular pre-breakfast 50k and being well into the training season was feeling pretty strong - I can tell when I'm getting fitter when I start to get the blokes hanging off my wheel instead of the other way around :-) On this particular morning the fast bunch had passed me but I'd picked up a few stragglers off the back and one bloke was steady on my wheel for about the last 5k.
Pulled up at the last set of lights and he drew level saying, "Gee, you're nice to ride behind - really smooth and steady - lovely style". What could I say except "That's the nicest thing someone's said to me all morning!" Think it had just gone 6:45am but still..
Had the biggest cheesy grin on my face all day!!
