Only one guy would trade off with me. I took my time going back. The bikes in front were Jack Kane and his buddies, they seemed nice too, but they had the most ANNOYING CONCIETED attitude. Plus, none of them thought I could keep up (I showed them).
It was thier attitudes that kept me from riding with them ever again, so don't say it's only Mountain bikers.
I just love "smoking" roadies, just love it!!
My last victim was eyeing me closing in on him on my mtb, then about 20ft ft behind him he stands , to no avail "on your left baby!"Just love it i say!!
