It gets a bit vocal in West Kirby at times but I’ve never seen anyone tipped off their bike. Fallen off their bike yes but never tipped off. Classic stuff.
I can’t understand why spinners get all vocal, or people on treadmills, or on steppers, or on any static gym-based machinery. After all, I’ve never seen anyone scream or shout when climbing up a 1 in 3 offroad climb on mud, or for that matter a roadie climbing Bwlch y Groes in the rain.
I reckon it’s all a show – “look how hard I’m working” 🙂

Dave, vocal is normally a countdown from 10 or a yeeha on one of the sprint tracks.
