Dangerous? Oh man, you just dont know. I was doing a strava KOM run down the sidewalk, had my earbuds in when I saw this thread. There was this little old lady walking down the sidewalk waving this white cane around. Well, I just had to go no-hands for just a quick moment to post. That old lady....she heard me coming and before I knew it she jammed that white cane into my spokes and was yelling at me!! Dang that hurt.

I once referred to another site's forum that shall be nameless (but might be known as roadbikereview) on what was BF 41, and for my offense was not only publicly excoriated but banned from even signing on the BF for a month...

I posted a picture of myself on my bike, but nobody waved.

After years of therapy, I can now say it. I was called a Fred. Yeah, I know. Pretty intense, but I'm in a better place now.

Someone yelled at me. They even said, we're going to yell at you, but it took me by surprise.

I spewed water out of my nose onto my keyboard after reading a post by Waterrockets. "I adjust my weight by not eating one stack of my daily Oreos"
