riding down essex road at a decent clip then hear loud panting and the odd clank behind me, turns out that some bloke on the jankiest hybrid was about 6 mm from my rear wheel with this big grin on his face having the time of his life. I slowed right down and told him to please get off my wheel and i was accused of being wierd and a bit ridiculous.
I just dont want some random person drafting me in the middle of friday rush hour in case I have to break suddenly or whatever or some car pulls a funny move and he comes plowing through the back of me. I have no idea about his ability on a bike and nor does he of mine, its foolish and fairly dangerous. He seemed genuinely amazed that I was irritated by this, I think he was being a bit of a knob but also felt a bit bad for spoiling his fun. I'm in the right here right?
