You have a lovely arse sometimes.

Had to pick the car up from a friends house last night, so took the bike and a detour around the roads.

14 miles, spot 1 hour. So my average speed is increasing. Just need to head out for some miles. Head back out this afternoon.

Good on ya. Just about to book the bus back to Clapham - do you want me to book you a space?

Sadly normal, it won't change because it's virtually up reportable unless you have a helmet camera on. That's why interval training is handy, get them at the next lights and dump your bottle contents on the vehicle.

Oh goodness sake. When a mere goose is considered a sexual assault then it's all gone loony.

Bend over then .....
If you are at a fair speed, it's enough to knock you off the bike, is that fair game too.

I get that all the time from women motorcyclists, pedestrians etcetc. I wish they would learn to control themselves.

It's assault. It's sexually motivated (he wouldn't have slapped a bloke on the arse). A slap on the bum when walking would probably pass as sexual harassment, on a bike it's assault.
