Getting flashed while riding? Lol

Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Getting flashed while riding? Lol

So I was just casually out for a dusk ride after work, I took a shorter ride since it was a pretty busy day and I was on my feet a lot. I didn't expect anything out of the ordinary..

I was just riding down a relatively remote country road that only a few trucks drive to get to their houses and what not. Pretty quiet. I look over at this group of people at the end of their drive way and one was waving at what I thought was me, I got closer and they were just one of those people who flail their arms randomly while telling stories to one of their friends.. but as I was looking over I saw some teenage to twenty-something year old girls in the next house over staring at me out the window, gave them a little wave and one of them just immediately threw up her shirt for me to see.

Gave me that extra boost of energy for one of the big hills down the way . Has this (or something similar) happened to anyone?

Well, that just means it was a good ride. .
Really though, everyone looks really hot when they are decked out in full kit with glasses. Everyone. I can understand a whistle, or a flirty taunt or something, but a full on flash? Maybe they were really lonely, living out in the country and all.
Who knows?

No but I did get stuck behind a hot jogger wearing short shorts on an uphill for about a mile and a half. (I'm slow)

Then the downhill came up and cockblocked me.

Haha those are nice, I had the opposite of that.. got stuck behind a mountain biker on a road with lots of cars so I couldn't really drop him for a few minutes, and I literally think he crapped his pants because the downwind smell was HORRID. Idk what his issue was but I dropped him like a ton of bricks on the downhill when another lane opened up finally.

1. Ride your bike down the same road again.
1a. If she flashes again, proceed to #2.
1b. If no flash, start over at #1.
2. Get a flat.
3. Knock on door.
4. Verify age.
5. Profit.

I've never been flashed while riding, just had my butt slapped by some guy riding shotgun in a pickup

Like Atol, I did enjoy the view of a runner in short shorts while riding up Latigo Canyon. I mean her shorts were so short you could see the bottoms of her cheeks I'm not that slow, but I did ride more slowly until I passed her

Yeah, I agree with my wife that men shouldn't wear white cycling shorts.

Ask any woman. Waiving or giving a thumbs up would have been cool. Going up to the door hoping for anything more would have been creepy. I know because I'm a creep.

Mrs. Fred is indulgent enough to allow us to stay with the female group rides that we happen upon from time to time.

Before her, a taxi van full of women had a nice time with me as I climbed one of my less favorite hills. They made a good fuss as the driver slowly came up alongside and eventually passed. Little did they know (you wouldn't expect tourists to) there was a stop light just over the crest. I pulled up alongside and leaned on the van while waiting for the light to change. Ended up meeting them for cocktails after they had dinner and I a shower:-)

Keep in mind 25 five years of cycling have resulted in more close passes, shot guns pointed at me and name calling than I can remember,............out of all that, the above is the only story of it's type that I have.

My two buddies and I had just finished a ride and were packing our cars to leave when a van full of women drove by, honked and waved. They had a large sign on the side of their van that said "Honk if you like mustache rides!" I honked at every freakin' car that I could find while on my drive home, but never did see them again.

Well, your good luck. Have had cars pass slowly with the flash taking place for my amusement. When I was 20, working as a surveyor, I was often out on the road doing what surveyors do. I on a number of occasions at evening drive time would have a woman pass by and make suggestive comments. Well, it WAS the 1970s... and random sex would kill you.

my former profession(at 15) was "sign spinner." one of those guys who stands on the corner with a huge sign and flips it around to advertise things that dont need to be advertised. in my long, 365 day career, i had been flashed a good handful of times. then again, iv also had sodas, slurpies, burgers and other random food products thrown at me...i think it evens out.

Since this has turned into jobs and boobs...I have, on occasion, worked the walk up teller window at a late night pawnshop. I have seen all sorts of flashes, none of them one I would want to see again...
