  1. Brag Brag. Here is the story short and sweet. Me on Strada and younger guy on litespeed were side by
    side approaching steep bluff hill. I thought this guys going to out climb me.I down shift and watch
    the litespeeder pull away.I start spinning and notice at the half way point I'm gaining on him. I
    can't believe it as I pull up beside the younger[standing in the pedals] rider.Wish I had a picture
    of his face as I pull ahead of him to become [briefly]KING OF THE HILL. AFter that I thought I was
    gonna puke and took a break while young blood rode into the sunset.

  2. Funny thing, everytime I pull up beside a DF rider going up a hill, they ALMOST ALWAYS stand
    up and pedal

    :LOL - I've always said, a pass isn't complete until you make it stick. Next time, hold on until you
    find a driveway to pull into. Pretend it's yours, and that you're done riding. Don't venture back
    out onto the road until he's safely vanished. This will accomplish two things: 1. he won't be able
    to repass you, and 2. he'll only *think* he knows where you live! Of course, this strategy only
    works if the other guy doesn't already know you...
