Shame we only started chatting a few hundred yards before our routes split. As I said I was on my way to the in-laws so I doubt if our paths will cross very often, my normal route is the A23 (E&C, Kennington, Brixton, Streatham).
I was aware of you for quite a while before we spoke. I thought, quite a powerful chap on a nice bike, he'll come round me soon and you did, but were you drafting me for a while? And then when you passed me were you expecting me to tuck in your wheel? No problem with that, in fact If you were drafting I think I can take that as a compliment. If not, sizing me up for a scalp? I know we did mention the unmentionable SCR.
Maybe speak again another day. Take care.

Nice to meet you as well as well!
I was going to pass you but you were in DeVer shorts... Its near impossible to overtake a person in DeVer kit and stay ahead and I didn't want that yesterday. I was also studying your pedal technique. It was very solid, very steady and very good - I learned a quite a bit.
I wouldn't say I was drafting (given my comments in the other thread), you were holding a really steady pace so I kept to the right of you (plus didn't want to overtake - see above). I was purposely in your view so you knew I was there but purposely blocking any vehicle that you couldn't see from overtaking (unless they did so leaving a lot of room), that way if you had to go round a bus/parked car or something, I would already be moveing out, protecting you.
I was expecting you to tuck behind me...
Was a shame that you had to turn off and I had to go straight. Definantly hope to see you again. It was fun! Take care!Food Chain number = 4
A true scalp is not only overtaking someone but leaving them stopped at a set of lights. As you, who have clearly beaten the lights, pummels nothing but the open air ahead. ~ 'DondaddyD'. Player of the Unspoken Game0
