I paced a roadie for a good two+ miles this morning... cyclist got on the trail JUST ahead of me where I cross over.... Came up behind, and the roadie glances back, then speeds up.... I kept pace, they kept glancing back and speeding up... We started at 18mph - when we hit 22 MPH, said roadie glances back one last time with an incredulous look...
Yeah... I was still there... platform pedals, cammo shorts, backpack strapped to the side of the rack on my Raleigh... It was fun... and got me to work right on time (I'd have been late if I'd ridden at my normal pace for that stretch which is usually closer to 17.5-18 mph)
Too bad I had to turn off to go to work... would have been fun to ride farther!
