I have been "that guy"
- hairy legs
- a bit of a gut
- lugged steel bike
- Brooks B-17
- 32 round spokes, square rims
- frame pump and seatbag in a road race
- yes, I actually raced most of 2008 wearing a jersey that has pictures of puppy dogs on the sleeves.

After one race, a guy comes up to me and says "dude, I was trying to avoid you the whole race, but every time a move started to happen, you were already there!" I smiled and asked him how he did. He said "you outsprinted me, don't you remember coming around me?"
Uhh... no, all you schmoes in team kit riding plastic bikes look alike to me.
