He then gasps and groans and acts like he was really gassed. Young dude, looked fit, new shoes, etc.
Anyway today I'm out there again eating a granola bar and a young lady rides by with this same dude like 50 yards behind her. A few minutes later she comes back and pulls into the rest area and I say "Good morning". She smiles and says 'morning and parks her bike. About then the guy comes rolling in looking really tired, flips the bike upside down and launches into his histrionics, gasping, hyperventilating, and looking like he just raced up Mount Evans. I guess his girlfriend worked him pretty good on the old mup.

Anyway I got a kick out of it.
