Another experiment today proved most confusing.
Out at 6.30am again and the first cyclist I saw was a ladie roadie waiting at a set of traffic lights on a railway bridge (I was coming the other way), I said 'morning' and gave a little wave. Her dark glasses meant I could not see if she even registered my presence... maybe she was just concentrating too hard on the track stand. Further on I saw a chap on a commuter / mtb-ish bike, not a thing, didn't even look at me on my orange / blue Cougar in full Rabobank Team kit. Same again a while later and again with a racing snake on a single speeder.... who might have been the same chap I saw the other day. Close to the end of the ride I saw a larger lady riding a Dutch bike towards me along a country lane, a 'good morning' from me got a smile and the same in return, she obviously spotted that my bike was not constructed from carbon fibre, thank goodness.
