I just posted this on BentRiderOnLine. It refers to a ride back in the early spring. [Quote] I was riding along on my Stratus XP having a great time, doing about 16 mph on a flat section of the Long Leaf Trace. As many of you know, 16 is not a big deal on the XP, not with a fairing, Q-rings, and Aerotrunk. I was looking around, watching out for rabbits and squirrels, taking in the spring weather, and checking my mirror now and then although there were not too many people on the trace that day. During one such glance in the mirror I noticed a speck, way back. Didn’t remember passing anyone. A little later I noticed the speck was a lot closer, looking more like an inverted exclamation mark; coming up fast. I mean really fast, too fast for me to outrun on the flats. I figured I’d been wabbitized and decided to have a carrot. When the rider was about a hundred yards back I started easing it on up. I was in 3-7 so had two gears to go and a long ways from max heart rate.
