You mean, "Look at the legs on that torso-less geek" or that the combo of spandex, bike jersey, bubble sunglasses and helmet that makes everyone look sort of oddly insect-like?

And then there is the weird tanning effect of pasty white feet and tan circles on the tops of their hands.

OT MulhollandDrive, RE: "this guy "breathing down my neck"

Almost sounds like he was drafting you, or maybe he had a crush on you. ((I've had guys I don't know ask if they could draft to save some energy. For those that don't do bicycle centuries, drafting is riding close to the person ahead of you to draft the wind for improved speed.)

Always felt one could judge a person's character by how they bike on a century. My bicycling buddies and I would always circle to the back of the group to make sure the last person was okay if they had fallen behind. But I noticed not all bikers in other groups did this. I always admired the guys with the polite biking skills.

Regards,
