Part 8
Friends won’t let their friends drink and ride.
Friends will, however, let you draft off them as you ride up or down a hill.
A good friend knows when they need to take the lead, because your legs are getting tired.
A good friend also knows when to let you take the lead,
because you just need to let the beast out.
A good friend also knows how to help pace you,
Mary and Liza riding in front of me as we ride from Ballathie to Murthly near the River Tay in Scotland.
so both you and they can have a beautiful ride.
