I've been in those types of rides - I actually really like them, since nobody complains when you take a big hard pull in front. Today on the ride back with 7-8 other guys, I was going to give a big pull up front on the way home (not with the fast first group) but after I got to the front, the guy behind me immediately told me to slow it down for everyone (granted, slowing meant 24mph, not 26+). I thought that the group wouldn't mind someone going off the front, even if they reeled them in later, but wasn't the case today.
