The more experienced a rider is, the more I think they'd be put out by someone trying to come and leech off the work they're doing. Wanna feed off of a draft? Get with a group that all has the same intentions.

Uninvited drafting is like hopping into a pick-up basketball game and just taking random shots.
My favorite is when I suddenly notice an ******* sucking my wheel and ask him to stop. "Oh it's ok, I'm just recovering." Recover somewhere else, *******.
