He seemed apologetic, and stood up for me with another rider, but they eventually gave in to the very angry guys who wanted me out. Seems like it was partially about the bike, and partially about one guy getting really pissed off that some guy in a sleeveless jersey almost hit his wife and taking it out on me.
Soooo...she's skiddish around Tri-guys...possibly something that might have been her fault (not saying it is) but she turned the screws and the mens balls shrank. Obviously you aren't sweating it now that you have an explanation, but if those guys are reading this thread then I'd suggest they find a new pair.
