Default How do they know???

I was walking to work this morning and people on the street ask me where my bike is. I was like, huh? They said they see me pass on my bike. How can you tell that's me? I am not walking around with my helmet or jacket. I have shorts on, no jeans. no boots. They cannot see the face through my shield.

Yesterday too. Someone stranger told me he always see me on my bike going to work.

Spooky..

Maybe it isn't your face they've been looking at.

cause secretly, despite their concerns for safety, most people wish they had a bike. doesn't mean they're brave enough to go get or ride on one, but they all wish they knew what it was like. And most are afraid they'd like it as much as they think they would.

That means you are cool and people notice you. Or you are the smallest person in all of Hawaii that rides a bike.

In my neighborhood there's like 2 female sportbike riders ...... all the rest of us Guys
know who they are on the bike or off & around town it's all cool they like the limelight
the Guys are just as happy flatter them ......... win win all round I'd have to say.

Having said that one of them can kick most Guys to the curb with her skills on the
street ...... and that just gets plain respect .... she's fearless ! it's awesome too imo

So I dunno maybe you fit into this kind of small community profile like we have

well if its a small place or you were close to your house and work then I'm sure they have just seen you get on or off your bike or get gas ect... do something where you took off your helmet. people really seem to notice female riders!

but if not then start changing with the blinds closed
