I overtook a chap on a nice cannondale mtb a while back and he properly stuck to my wheel. I buried myself trying to drop him which I did... eventually. Got a Strava PB for that segment, though lol.
Tonts-
"challenge ACCEPTED" sounded like a good challenge.
In fairness I've done it as well, somebody who was Snailing all the way down (so was I, shared ped/cycling paths) decided to turn Cheetah on the road.
My excuse for not getting there was that I was on the Brompton but really...that's excuses.
There is one cyclist on my route who is on a cheap decathlon bike who is superduperfit just mad speed. Cheapeau and all that :)

Cycling to work, overtaking a cyclist with a child seat. Wasn't going that fast maybe 15mph...they then decide they don't want to be overtaken by me and speed up. A lot.
Promuting ensues as I rise to the challenge.
[yes there is lots of room, was just the two of us, and I had to drop back twice as I didn't want to squeeze past as that's rude and the motorists need their space too]
Just strange...most cyclists don't care if they are being overtaken. Ah well.
