Lone Wolf...

I got all dressed up to go to the coffee ride this morning. i even drove there ready to ride but i was just not in a social mood. i haven't been all weekend long. So i just decided to tear outta there and go home. i took a nap and got up and went for a decent ride solo. I expected my average to be higher but i think all in all i did well.

Definately never judge a book by its cover. some guy was drafting me and i could see his shadow. i was going about 19mph then i turned around and to my surprise he was on a mountain bike with slicks on. so i turned on the speed. i jumped up to 27 and held it for about 1 min then i throttled back down to about 20mph. 2 minutes later there he was again. this time i just let him pass. then to my shock i saw he was on a schwinn mtn bike with toe clip pedals and a kick stand!!! YOU KIDDIN' ME!!! then he kicked up to about 21.5 mph and held it for at least 3 miles. I was too proud to draft him so i just stayed back about 100 feet. he occasionally looked back to see if i was there. that was how my ride started. after he pulled off to his car i slowed to about 17-18mph and stayed there during the flat parts of the ride. Just goes to show it's not the car but the engine that matters.
