LOL, man you all need to "lighten up", there's nothing wrong with getting a little feeling of special, if you have a good day and end up out doing a rider on a better, lighter bike. 95% of the time, I'm the rider, getting "blown into the weeds", no problemo on my part! There's a level of satisfaction when I get blown by, then take off to see "What I can do", getting up to full boil!

Sometimes I can just keep that other rider in sight, other times I've surprized myself by either staying like glue on their rear wheel or even pass them up, I do it with a smile and if it's crime to enjoy passing up a "full kitted" rider, then I'm gulity as charged!!! I ride what most of you all would consider a "commuter" and get a lot of "what a pile" looks from a lot of "pure rodies", I doubt that many of them are "RACERS", cause IF they were, I'm sure I couldn't get near them, even if their just "taking it easy". These are usually the guy/gal that has lot's of bucks and gives you the "sneer" as they go by you on their full carbon, ti, whatever machine. Maybe you all that ride "decent" level ROAD BIKES don't get the "SNEER" but it seems to come my way a LOT. So forgive me for ENJOYING the moment!
