tombeej Posted June 9, 2015 Posted June 9, 2015 I have yet to figure out why, but I find it annoying if randoms start drafting me while out on a LSD. It in no way detracts from my ride, but sjoe it winds me up. Don't draft strangers!! it's s training ride, don't make it easier for yourself that's cheating You're not alone. I also find 'the silent joiner/wheelsucker' to be pretty rude and unwelcome. In fact, that's why they came up with Rule #19... Rule #19 // Introduce Yourself.If you deem it appropriate to join a group of riders who are not part of an open group ride and who are not your mates, it is customary and courteous to announce your presence. Introduce yourself and ask if you may join the group. If you have been passed by a group, wait for an invitation, introduce yourself, or let them go. The silent joiner is viewed as ill-mannered and Anti-V. Conversely, the joiner who can’t shut their cakehole is no better and should be dropped from the group at first opportunity. If I come up to a rider on his own doing a chilled LSD ride (or even a group, for that matter), I make sure they know I'm there, introduce myself and if I want to ride with them I will ask them if I can join. Otherwise, I'll ride a few metres away until there's a safe opportunity to pass and be on my way. Edit: and if it's the other way around and I'm on my own, and next thing I've got a silent shadow on my wheel, then I will give them a gentle dig about their (lack of) manners and ask them to move along.

I like just increasing the pace little by little until you hear them panting and then just hold it there till they pop

Jeez you boys are unfriendly. Its lekker to get a tow down a road when it is least expected. Like finding a new friend, except one with benefits.....
Baaisikilist Posted June 9, 2015 Posted June 9, 2015 lycra, and lycra.and spandexWhat has scarred you in this manner...? Caught wearing your mom's pantyhose under your school pants and humiliated by the school bully, causing you to wake up in cold sweats, screaming...?

No, I agree 100%. I am always keen to meet new riders. BUT that doesn't stop me from keeping my manners. I don't walk up to a group of strangers sitting at a restaurant table and just plonk myself down and order a drink, and without even saying 'hello' to anyone. Can you imagine? Well, that is no different from just riding up to a group and just assuming you can join in and not bother to say hi, introduce yourself, and ask if you can join them. Same with a lone rider.
candz1 Posted June 9, 2015 Posted June 9, 2015 mtb riders who pass other riders up a hill because they are hanging onto a stronger partner and then hold others up on the single track and downhills..
GaryvdM Posted June 9, 2015 Posted June 9, 2015 I have a white bib . In my defence, I bought when I was a noob, and it was heavily discounted at the LBS. Lucky it has black bits strategically positioned. (This is it : www.assosfactoryoutlet.com/men/shorts/t-fi-13-s5-white.html) And although I regret buying them, I still wear them. I'll happily stop wearing them if someone buys me a replacement black pair.
