Early on I had a guy come up next to me...full gear on riding a Felt bike. We talked for a minute and he said "hey you can draft if you like" and then he takes off.....within 30 seconds I was puffing and he was gone. When I got home later at first I was ticked because I felt like he saw me from a distance and knew I was obviously an inferior rider compared to him....then I dropped the conspiracy theory and just accepted the fact that he was being friendly but I was not good enough.

Humbled.
