The opposite can be true as well.

I was riding one of my road bikes home from work last week in a lovely tailwind. While catching my breath I was passed by a roadie a bit older than me. I'm in my early 30s and he appeared about 10 years older.
Anyhow, he hauled arse past me and ran off the trail. D'oh!

The end result was me passing him a few minutes later after I spun up to my regular speed plus the tailwind. He looked a tad aggravated when I passed.
