Probably not that one. If he's got the cojones to latch onto that fast a group in the first place he'll probably be ambitious enough to just ride more and faster miles and choose his groups more carefully. Depends on whether he wants to put in the work or not.

And I agree with lhbernhardt in that passing a leadout in a paceline with strangers like that creates chances for an unpredictable response. Better to stick to paceline protocol and just have the guy pull out. Really in that situation safety might take priority over niceties when guys are tapping their brakes.
