Default Re: Bad Biking Experience

I think because the bloke got close up to Shell and kept following her, then turns out to be someone she would rather not have had follow her/ see it shook her up abit? i know shell (at times, like me) is a tad nervous out and about on the bike at times (after her accident) so this prob didnt help her confidence?

Yup you got it and it bought memories of my 7 years if hell back with my ex. Kinda shook me up when I didnt know who he was or what he wanted, he was glued to my rear tyre and at one point I honestly thought he was gonne take it from under me.

Suppose means nothing if you don't know me, I shall stop posting drivel Kitkat LOL

I don't know you, you don't know me, but the way I read it you were describing that someone was being agressive towards you, riding far too close and following you in a pursuing manner (and then to cap it all there turned out to be a dodgy personal history connection) - I can clearly see how it was a bad experience.

I didn't think it was drivel, although maybe that's just because I hate bullies and/or arrogant types and my biggest biking fear (both motor & pedal bike, as it happens) is being taken out from behind because someone else doesn't respect the space.

If posting helps you deal with it, then that's probably a good thing.
