Peleton conversations

Just a random thought before, With all the time spent stuck in a peleton at well below flat out pace, how much do the riders chat to each other and what about?

and there is always at least one self-appointed peleton-policeman yelling orders. usually telling people to get a move on...when they could just lead by example and have a crack themselves

lol this happened in my handicap on the weekend - there was a guy constantly shouting instructions to keep the B grade paceline going - most instructions were along the lines of ease up, don't go fast out of the corners etc - anyway people started ignoring him so the pace picked up and he was the first to get dropped, it was fairly amusing - then he was still yelling instructions at us as he rolled around solo each time we went past him!!JV911 wrote:it's true!familyguy wrote:Too funny
there was one in yesterday's crit...i think he ended up getting dropped
I assumed you were talking about Spartacus in last years TdF...I guess there's always others!JV911 wrote:it's true!familyguy wrote:Too funny
