TT helmet = 75 watts. There is no way he was doing more than 150 watts when I droped him, and I heard him scream in agony when he was a block behind so he was trying. I put it into my 50x19 and just crushed it, so I know it made him hurt.
Maybe if he had a not NOT SKINSUIT kit and the TT helmet, he could have hung, but I still think I'd drope him again. Plus he had discs breaks.

Guys. Believe it or not, I actually dropped LeBron James, and I'm just a Cat 4. I know, BS, right? Except it's not. I lived in Miami when he moved there, and his house was on South Bayshore which is the major bike route to get to Key Biscayne where everyone trains.
I was riding along, minding my own business, probably holding a steady 350 watts since it was a recovery ride, when an enormous man in a backpack on a mountain bike pulled out from a sidestreet right in front of me. I moved out into the lane, passed him like a fighter jet missing the cables on a carrier, and then realized people in cars were taking pictures with their cell phones of the guy behind me.
That's actually a true story. Yet more proof that he's a crappy bike rider. It also appeared that he was wearing compression NOT BIBS under a pair of baggy NOT BIBS.

I ate ice cream on Billy Joel's boat when he wasn't there. The owner of the marina invited me. He also owned the local ice cream shop.
US Congressman George J. Hockbrueckner (R New York) was riding a tandem with his wife in a parade on Long Island as a reelection stunt. I jogged up and offered my opinion on some bill going through one of his committees and he said, "Get away from me you idiot."
All NOT BS.

A friend of mine beat up Derek Jeter in high school.

Also, I think that the number of BF mentions should be prominently displayed on Strava member profiles. Yea or nay?

Did you report it? Funny, I don't see your report.
Mods can't be everywhere. If you see something, say something!
