Why try to be a hero?

My first thought was that he was on a Strava segment mission...

Yep, that wouldn't surprise me, there are quite a few odd segments round there.

Don't get me wrong, I use it to create routes for my cycle buddy types to use, and it's very good for giving you a fairly accurate calorie burn, which is useful if you do the mileage a I've been doing of late, and you don't want to end up looking like a POW camp inmate. I can't be bothered with the whole segment chasing thing, too much like cockery for my liking. Anyway I'm at the 60 mile mark at the moment, having a coffee

Nope, it definitely wasn't that. I don't mind that, if those ones come past, they don't break their arse to try and prevent you re passing them. This one was definitely a douche.

In which just sit on his arse, smiling encouragingly everytime he looks behind ...l until you choose your moment suitably refreshed from taking it easy up the hill, pass him and Thank him for the tow as you disappear into the distance

I had a car driver do it to me yesterday. Now that was REALLY annoying!

He accelerated hard to pass, pulled straight back in front of me, and then braked hard to a stop.

I swerved round the car, slowed down as I passed the driver and gave him the Black Stare of Death, while slowly shaking my head from side to side. At least he had the decency to look pretty embarrassed! ***

It's a deep seated unconscious sexual inadequacy, the desire to 'dominate' others. Just make a willy sign with your little finger and overtake him back.

You missed out adding "hop on" as you pass, indicating your rear wheel, whilst pushing that right amount that they try to get there, but never make it...

I tried willy waving once but it made the bike quite unstable, so now I just let it rest along the length of the top tube

May I be the first to make the Chopper reference.

I'm not keen on lying my old chap along the top tube anymore, not since the pothole incident when it rolled off and got caught in the chain.

A new cyclist full of Spring enthusiasm overtakes you and runs out of puff.

Hardly worth whinging about is it.

That's exactly it, it's bloody dangerous.
