On not so cold winter days there is this dude that keeps riding by me like I'm standing still. Last time he said "Hello" as he went by and I said "Good Morning" in return.
Next time he rides by, I'd like to push him over with my foot.
We're all brethren until the commuter race starts.
I'm wondering if it is the same guy who passes me occasionally. Most riders who pass me, I may be able to keep up with them for an 1/8 mile, 1/4 mile, 1/2 mile, whatever - if I really suck it up. There's one guy that comes by me at least +5 mph, probably more. I can't match his pace for 2 seconds.
I think he said hello to me, though it was hard to tell, what with the Doppler effect and all.
