Sorry, gratuitous addition to the current theme.

However, I could make the point that there are always a few plonkers on a mass participation ride, who enjoy starting late and then "breaking away" at what they regard as high speed from every humble enthusiast on a shopper bike with a jumper tied around their waist, whilst tutting disapprovingly, and then weaving through the punters up ahead like a BMW on a motorway.

In fact, I've done it myself, but the thrill wears off after a while! :oops:
