The phrase “just riding along” has a few different meanings. At your local bike shop it can make your mechanic cringe. Particularly if offered up while showing a snapped or mangled component. More so if there are obvious signs that a wee bit of maintenance could have prevented the problem.
For racers, it can imply a lull in the action. It seems a bit contradictory, but when the tempo picks back up, it’s often phrased as “let’s ride.”
It can also refer to the sublime pleasure of just riding your bike for the pure enjoyment. No other reason needed.
