Losing in front of young impressable group of children must be quite ennervating.
I was working up a small climb on my bicycle at the top gear (48-11) when I noticed an autorikshaw driver, at my left rear, revving his rikshaw at as high RPM as the rikshaw could do, to get past me. I had just overtaken that rikshaw and had seen couple of young kiddos gawking at me, their eyes popping out. The rikshaw driver must have gone all mad that a bicycle rider was getting the better of him. So revvvv high.
He tried all he could. His revving and my power burst went on for a minute or two. But nothing doing. I get hyper competitive in such situations when on my bicycle. Finally he gave up.
Love it when I can comprehensively show these prime traffic violators down. They cannot compete with other vehicles since they have an alibi of a low powered engine. But with a bicycle? Hey! A bicycle is not even powered. It must be irritating these guys no end. Especially when they cannot ever brag in front of those young kiddos without being pointed out that they lost to a bicycle rider. Haha!
Sweet revenge for all the anxiety and frustrations these rikshaw drivers subject me to, with their rash and inconsiderate traffic manners.
