Awesome ride! Good for you.
I personally love it when I can put the hurt on the guys.
DH and I...when riding together...if we spot someone on the road ahead, make an effort to chase them down. Some days it's easier than others. And sometimes, when we succeed in catching and passing, they'll jump on our wheel and don't let us drop them. Then, the battle really begins!
It's fun and makes the ride interesting. Miles fly by in those cases.
There are 2 guys on the Sunday a.m. shop ride who love to rib me about how I tease them on this long flat section, as we'll cruise as a group to the base of this hill, then I leave them in the dust when the road turns upward!
Yeeeha!
Go get 'em!

Personally, I don't think it's really fair to generalize that guys have problems with women passing them. The guys I know on bikes are real happy to ride together with females and show their admiration and easy camaraderie (my DH included). And as we know, neither gender can corner the market on big egos and inferiority complexes.
But yes, when any person (male or female) acts superior on their bike, no harm in giving them something to think about.

While I agree with Lise that we shouldn't generalise re guys and them being passed by girls... I do love this phrase and can think of some guys I know that could use this one hurled over the shoulder back at them

Courage does not always roar. Sometimes, it is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying,
"I will try again tomorrow".
