Other cyclist encounters :D

I had an interesting ride today...

I first saw a guy with full gear waiting at a light with me, and just staring at me....I was like CRAP! So I said, "Hi"...He did not respond. And he kept starring. I was a bit disturbed.

I saw another cyclist ahead of me pushing 19+mph on flats. I was about 15 feet behind him trying to keep up. He looks back and waves for me to pass. Im thinking, "Crap dude I have to go at least 21+mph to pass this guy, hes crazy" and constantly trying to keep up he waves for me to pass him. I started spriting and then as soon as I was getting close he started sprinting too. I was like CRAP!!! . I look down and Im going 25mph and hes staying with me. We were doing 22mph average for about 5 minutes until I gave up. He gave me a thumbs up and then he sped off. I was no match for this guy

All in all, with a flat and some scenery I think it was a good day.

PS: I did 20 miles this time, and I wasn't exhausted when I got home. I'm going to shoot for 30 tommorow.

Thanks for reading
