As he passes me, it's this brutally rusted out mountain bike with huge knobbies and some guy pedalling like a madman and not making great speed while doing it. As he passes me, he throws back a defiant look and then pedals off even harder. Apparently you're not allowed to ride a "fast" bike without being in an informal race with everyone on the road... I guess I lost?

That said, it was a pleasant, gentle commute the entire way in. Didn't push hard just went with the flow

lol... the visual in my brain, pretty funny. Did you give him a nonchalant shrug?
