The act of bicycle pacing behind a motor vehicle is traditionally called "staying". The bicyles are refered to as "stayers" and have steep head angles, smaller front wheels and reverse rake forks to allow the cyclist to be closer to the motor vehicle for a better draft. The negative rake actually restores trail lost due to the smaller wheel and steeper head tube.
