I got quite a few coments being the only recumbent
I saw you power past, I think my comment was "Good morning."
I got a few remarks, I presume because of the jersey, but possibly also the steel framed bike, presence of full mudguards, toeclips/straps, overly generous proportioned Carradice slung from the saddle, and maybe the beard...
(Heard behind me, an aside to another club rider) "Aye, but these audax guys are not about riding fast."
(En passant, from another club rider) "Oh look! A proper audax rider, unlike us!" I replied (philosophically) "I'm not sure if I know what that means."
(From a temporary riding companion after hearing I'm relatively new to audax) "Oh, sorry but I thought you were one of those grizzled old audax veterans."
