I’ve been the following rider twice – I’m not that fast so it doesn’t happen often
1st was at Afan somewhere – longish singletrack descent. Some bloke set off inbetween me and my mate and was very slow. I waited for a bit behind him, got no response so stopped and gave him a lead. Caught him and repeated the above – twice. Dozy **** eventually stopped to let me past literally less than 50 yards from the bottom.
My mate had been down about 5 minutes when I finally arrived
Second was in california. 5 mile descent, earned with a 5 mile climb. caught a pair of riders, one of whom was obviously fairly new to it and quite twitchy as it’s quite exposed in parts. Waited behind them for about half a mile until they stopped. As I passed the one at the back, the other one cut back onto the trail and set off in front – not that much faster than before (but clearly leaving his hesitant mate on his own). I stopped to give him a lead, caught him and did the same again so just stopped and waited until the other guy caught up. He stopped and apologised for his “mate” who he said acts like a dick sometimes and hates to be passed
Both “events” have made me very keen to avoid doing it to any rider who might catch me
so for me it’s “B”, but eventually “A – you selfish ****!”
