23 mile route home, really nice. Merged with another rider who was leaving a convenience store and I paced w/ him to a really high commute speed for me, it was awesome. He was older and better and had a nicer bike I was glad I could ride with him.

Specifically, he caught up to me and went ahead, then he was hanging to the right in a wide shoulder so I went ahead, then he said something about wanting to race and I just shadowed him the rest of the way. I am not up on roadie etiquette, I couldn't tell if he was asking me to take turns pulling a mini paceline or if he was telling me to stay behind him. Whatever, I went really fast with him. We yakked at traffic lights about nothing in particular.
