Naw, on a ride I'd just pass you.
I'd go into the left half of the road to do it, too, when it was clear.
And I wouldn't try to hold you up on the climbs, promise.
I ride with several people who aren't confident descenders. All women, which is a little bit distressing. Honestly, as I've said before many times, it was riding a moto that taught me how to see when I'm on a bici at speed, and that made all the difference in the world.
I might hate to be behind your bike if I were in a car, but I'd deal with it, I promise. 
Featuretile, I'm sorry if I said anything that made you feel attacked. I think it was the thread title more than anything that got people's dander up. In spite of the digs - which I do wish hadn't happened - I think we've had a good discussion about safety here.
