I went out on a 20 mile ride today with a friend from college. He is a MTBer and this was his first time on a road bike.
However, that didnt stop him from speeding away from me at 25mph and having to stop about 10 times for me to catch up.
Places where I kept up with him though were up and down hills.
His bike was brand new (demo from bike shop) and was a bit lighter than mine, but I thought that he would be having difficulty keeping up with me. To make things worse, I had to ride home (from Llanwrst to Prestatyn) which added another 20 miles on the route.
I am thuroughly exhausted now but have a lovely homemade chicken curry to look forward to.
