I am treated differently by other road users
Discussion
When I don't have my Lycra on.
Seriously - been on the MTB twice in the past week and when I do, I normally just have a hoody/t-shirt and plain track suit bottoms. When on the road bike, I have full on lycra etc.
I've noticed that when in my scruffs on MTB, other road users seem to be closer to me when passing and generally don't seem to "notice" me. It was quite scary today on a few occasions.
On the road bike, it's the opposite - I feel like I am well noticed and motorists mostly give me a wide berth.
Anyone else noticed this or is it just coincidence?
