Funny! We were doing our thing on Sunday when we rolled up to another couple. We were not riding with any aggression, Gina was tired so we planned an easier ride than on Saturday. Anyway, they hop on our wheel draft for a while then sprint around like bats out of hell. Dude did pretty well but the gal kept fading. I'm shocked the dude ditched his wife like that. We kept our pace then rolled by her again. She did the rinse and repeat thing a couple of times.

I wonder why he didn't wait for her then both lift the pace dropping us like bad habits together. It would have been more glorious than the way we rolled by them a couple miles up the road when she could barely spin the pedals. I mean a track racer at Lincoln but a beach cruiser at Edna.

I mean the 24 mph sprint was glorious but the 10 mph huffing and puffing fade wasn't! Right before the glorious sprint, she had just got done asking us and telling us they were doing a ride 20 miles longer than our 42. I'm betting they turned back early.
