Default Pull Over!
You might want to pull over to let traffic pass if you are holding up 2 bicycle riders( one who is even sitting up with no hands) and a whole line of cars?

Good shot. You'd be surprised how fast you can go on a road bike(bicycle), especially downhill! I rode one for nearly ten years until I went down hard on a rainy morning.

You just have to hope that there is a camper or something infront of him. If not, well that is just sad.

Yep - I started in eastern KY, where all the roads are similar to the dragon, on a plain old Honda CB 750, and on those curves, there should be no way a car catches a motorcycle. But...a bicycle?

Looks like the motorcycle just passed both bicycles. Also looks like the one riding with no hands is a little pissed. I wonder if the motorcycle may have cut a little close instead of taking a wide line through the curve.

1990 to 97 I raced them too. Knee injury, non bike related, took me out. I used to love doing time trials. Ba!!s out, fast as you can just you and the bike.
