I went Saturday to the Rose Bowl for the end of leg 8 of the Tour of California.
I found most of the cyclists to be very social, or willing to talk about the race, to answer questions, to ask questions.
I tend to talk to everyone.
If I find one that doesn't respond, or doesn't say anything, I just move on to the next, and talk to them.
I am also a motorcyclist. And again, whenever I stop I talk to everyone, particularly the other bikers, and again, most talk, and if they don't I just move on to someone else.
Sure some are anti social, or can't or don't talk, or maybe are having a bad day or moment and have nothing to say, so I move on.
Mostly I mean around California. But other places too. Particularly in small towns. I guess in small towns they don't get to talk to so many people, so when someone does come through, they like to ask, where you from, where you going, etc.
