2 wks ago I was on a club ride w/ about 28 Western Wheelers. It was a mixed group speed wise and being new to big group rides, it took me awhile to figure out that all the people in front, who eventually pulled away, were the fast riders. I caught up w/ them about 1/2 way through the route and a little later we stopped to let the rest of the group catch up. I parked my Giro 20TT on one side and since it is lower than the "other" bikes, at least one person did not see it and in response to "are we all hear", she said, "wasn't there a recumbent w/ us?" Someone else chimed in that I was here and I got to say "There you go expecting the recumbent to be last". A 1/2 dozen people laughed out loud and one said to me "especially on the downhills". They will all learn eventually!
