So, during our long bike ride last weekend, we spent a LOT of time with each other and in that time, we each adopted our own catch phrases. Here's how it went down:
John H.: "It will only take a minute..." Of course, his minutes could take hours.
John S.: "Where did you say you put those earplugs again?" Usually, he asked this question after I sang bad 70's songs or after John H. changed the lyrics to songs to fit whatever my current issue was. He has been known for such hits as "Here comes road rash girl, riding down the lane...." on that RAGBRAI where I crashed hard when my wheel got stuck in a crack in the road) or "Migraine girl, you've been livin' in your migraine world..." after any ride I had some brain pain going on.
Me: "I'm sorry..." after just about anything. I can't help it, I was raised Irish Catholic, it's all in the upbringing. Besides, being the only girl, I had to make up for the boys who never apologize about anything.
I guess we'll see what kind of catch phrases this year's RAGBRAI will bring...

Good luck. Have fun!
Ha ha. We'll need it. RAGBRAI isn't until the end of July, so we should have plenty of time to figure out how to drive each other even more crazy.
