After about a mile and a half, they made their move, and one guy crept up and started half wheeling without a word of greeting or acknowledgement. I said, “And a pleasant good morning to you too and you’re welcome,” to which he replied with some mumbling I didn’t make out. At that point, I am ashamed to say, I told him to **** off, and sped up. They dropped back on the clear evidence that I was an irritable and potentially dangerous character and, inevitably, passed me on the next hill.
Waiting for the 41 post about how road cyclists are mean.
