Obviously not, I’m amazing on a bike. But is this someone who was new out last night? Can’t say I’ve noticed anyone in the group doing it, except the lad who’s normally fast but is on a crap hardtail while his good bike is fixed but he’s stayed at the back.
Otherwise it sounds like he’s already stopped doing it. Maybe he eyed everyone up and thought we all looked slower than him? In which case surely that makes us mincers the problem?
Haha – of course it’s not you Luke. An old mate from Wirksworth came out at my invite – he usually rides with MMBC. I kept trying to get past him over Stanton Moor from the corkstone, then he shot off in front again round the edge of the moor, so left a gap and caught him up. I told him before we went down to the old traveller site that he had better get a move on on his ht (banter) or let me go in front – he intentionally gave a virtual two fingers and set off after Dave & Fergs. He gave up on the rocky section though and let me past. I went first on Sheepwalk, so he didn’t have the option, then he let me go first on Druids. Still got stuck behind him on Sabine Hay Singletrack though, but wasn’t too fussed then.
It was all lighthearted enough though and he enjoyed the ride, so all good
