My ride partner has about seven thousand over me in bicycle, and I can drop her (Custom Waterford versus thrift store bike). But she's good company, so I generally don't. She does occasionally send me out to destroy the stray Cervelo, though.
It really doesn't matter what you're riding or what the other guy/gal is... just have fun.
