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.
Step 1. Enter an elite A cyclocross race on a geared bike.
Step 2. Get your soul crushed by all the weak ******* on geared bikes.
Step 3. Reread your post.
Step 4. Kick your self in the nuts.
Step 5. Repeat step 4.
Step 6. Repeat step 5.
