The thing that annoys me the most, is his frequent need to stop. He wants to stop and take a break after every climb...on a long ride, he'll frequently want to take extended breaks at gas stations or food establishments. He says I'm a slave driver because I only stop to take a piss or when I need to refill bottles, and I'll give him crap if he wants to stop. Now that I think about it, maybe I'm the PITA riding buddy?
nah I don’t think it’s you. What does stopping achieve? You can easily recover from a climb while rolling along at Z2 for a minute or two.
