As a 60 years old on a MB, it's pretty sad if they can't!
Funny thing though, I'll catch up with one on rare occasion, and end up passing him a couple miles later, while his tongue is hanging out."-)
I don't let anyone dictate my speed except me. I typically ride to get where I'm going as fast as I can without distress. That means a steady, narrow cadence range. IF I feel like getting REAL sweaty, I might push the last mile or so before getting home.
