Simplest solution: ITT. They don't call it the "race of truth" for nothing. 10 miles should do it.

I say let it go, life is too short to worry about it.
If anything invite him to the Saturday ride and see what he is made of, but really why bother with this guy?

Wealthy, younger and an ortho surgeon are tough to beat. You can be thankful he is not a plastic surgeon. You definitely do not want him to add you to his cycling palmarès.

My first thought, as others have mentioned is don't waste your time.

Bikes: Catrike 559 I own some others but they don't get ridden very much.

Imagine you have an accident like I did last summer that broke both of my elbows. Guess who the orthopod on call in the ER is going to be that day.
