I have a flat sprint segment near my house. It's 1 mi. and relatively flat. I like to track my seasonal progress using it as a marker. I also have a guy about my age (73) that I check because we have similar PBs and it's a little incentive for me. I have no idea who this guy is. Just a name on Strava. This year I set a PB at 24.6 mph which was about .4 mph faster than his. The other day I saw that his PB had jumped to 25.6 mph. I was impressed. Then I saw that he had ridden on the wheel of two other guys. So now I'm chasing a guy who is drafting. Just another incentive.
