Happy Friday! And welcome to our first installment of our very own advice column- Ask CycleZine. It’s how we will teach you things in the guise of dumb questions with really witty retorts. So without further ado:
Dear Cyclzine
I often find myself in situations where I wish to compliment female cyclists on their beautiful Campagnolo Nuovo and Super Record components. But as I begin to, I find myself fumbling for the right words.
For example, last week I approached a woman on a very nice vintage Cinelli SuperCorsa. I said, “Wow, that is a really pristine set of 60’s Super Record Cranks you got there”. She looked at me in disgust, as though I were little more than a sadly converted Colnago “fixie”, and walked away. Turns out they were from 1984.
Please help.
