I slowly closed the gap going up the hill and caught up with him at the top and he was dripping sweat and clearly out of breath. I was overdressed in long pants and a long sleeve shirt and talked to him a little bit while we waited for cross traffic.

I think it may have been then that he realized I had electric assist. =)
I was passed by a guy on an e-bike on a long uphill, but later caught and dropped him on the flats. Bike was limited to 20 mph. Enjoyed the challenge.
