Wife and I did three days 35 miles/day, 105 miles total of team time trial for the Holiday weekend. We did the Carmel Mountain Road Park n Ride to Carlsbad but it was too slow with all the lights and traffic so we did two Camp Pendleton to San Clemente rides.

My petty / snarky behavior included interaction with a couple of cling ons on the coast ride including an old guy that jumped on my wife’s wheel which was a happenstance of traffic where we got separated. I politely told him that unless he was also married to her, she was my wheel and to vacate immediately - he did. I actually saved him the embarrassment of her riding him off her wheel. One other guy, who was a pretty good rider, obviously did not get the social distancing memo. He lasted for awhile until we rode him off our wheel as well. Riding someone off your wheel is just the best.
