Yeah, I had a similar experience while cycling to work two years ago. A petite woman was drafting behind me (I'm 2m, 6'7" for imperialists). After a while she decided to pass me and I thought "okay, my turn to draft". But, no draft and she dropped me, just like that. I remember thinking that it wasn't fair. But then again, I'm also "rewarded" from time to time with "I love this guy". And not from men with unshaven legs. :-)
Sorry Ross D. Knight, the Sunday rides start too early for me. But I'll be doing the RLCT cruise.
