I said, What is? He says following my wheel without permission. I almost fell of the bike when he said that

We went back and forth with it and i told him i've been riding there for 20 years and never heard of such thing. I also told him sorry if i hurt his feelings for riding his wheel and not asking first.(sarcastically of course) I told the guy that was his opinion and that i was going to keep doing it.

So is there such a thing? Was i wrong? Flame on i can take it.
Yes and yes. Its waaaay fred to rush another rider and draft him without his knowledge. Especially when you are trying to impress him with your prowess on knobby tires.

But you'll keep doing it.
