Nothing to do with roadies but that reminds me of a random encounter with a non-biking friend who knows I ride all the time. She saw me at the grocery loading my bike to go home. She said:
"Oh, out getting your exercise?"
"No, just getting some things for dinner."
"Yeah, but out getting some exercise."
"No, just running some errands and getting groceries.'
"But, out getting some miles in..."
"No, just going to the store."
No matter how you say it, they just don't get it.
