Passed a roadie on my hybrid! Got it on video!

Since you asked...

I didn't read her thread until you linked to it. I think it was a tone thing. My perception was that she proud of how far she has come and acknowledged that maybe the guy wasn't "racing". Your post made me think you were gloating. Not that's there's anything wrong with that. I've been known to gloat. That may or may not be what you intended. But communication occurs in the mind of the listener (reader.)

That's the problem with the printed word vs. speaking with someone face-to-face. This isn't the first time my posts on the internet have been taken out of context. No, I wasn't gloating. I was just happy to finally be making progress. Especially since I am experiencing a weight loss plateau right now, which is frustrating.

I didn't think you were gloating. You seemed to be happy at an achievement, and many of us use this forum to celebrate individual achievements. Don't worry about it. Keep riding and celebrating when you pass a roadie! I'll celebrate with you.

Thank you You hit the nail on the head

It wasn't so very long ago that I celebrated passing people who were running.
