When he’s in my neighborhood, he’s doing about 18-19 mph, and looks like he’s hardly working.
Oh I didn't even mention that part!

When this dude finally stopped he calmly got off the bike looked like he was walking out of church. Completely collected. Wasn't even breathing hard.

Meanwhile I've got sweat pouring off me and and was struggling to catch my breath.
