Keep in mind that there will always be that guy who can drop you like a bad habit.
I've been dropped by people on x-mart bikes, and I've dropped people who were in full kit and talking smack to me. That's what's great about cycling, you never know what a rider can really do until your foot is firmly implanted into your own mouth
...I sure know I've tasted my own feet before....not terrible, but I'd rather avoid doing this often, saliva make my toes feel funny.
