You near Indiana? You can join me on a 310 mile day, if you can keep up with a 48 year old man riding a road bike
I'm shooting for a sub 18 hour triple century

I guess he bonked. So I nod at him and pass. He stares blankly at me, no sign of emotion.
30 seconds later same guy blasts by on the big chain ring. I put on the pressure and match his pace as i'm spinning 125rpm at 23mph, the guy must have been like holy ****? this kid on a fixie is killin it without gears. finally i whoop him on the big hill out here and once he reaches the top switches it to his biggest gear so he could smoke me down the descent.
yeah some guys need to work on their cadence and consistency.
