I've recently started following two colleagues on Strava. One is a distance guy. He knocks out 50 milers like they're just warmups.
The other is a commuter who rides 13 miles to work and back every day regardless of weather. He also takes his Domane 3.2 on some seriously nasty mountain bike trails around the local lake. He's hard-core as they come. His Domane SLR is loaded. Electronic shifting and the works. He's also a scientist and data collection nerd. You walk into his office and he's pouring over charts of his rides to determine where he can improve his time on Strava segments. Yesterday he rode up beside me as I was heading out for some hill work. We chatted for a bit and then he said, "See ya" and left me in his dust. Now I know how Wile E. Coyote feels.
