I have recently started commuting to uni to try and save a bit of cash as well as to get fitter. I've been riding downhill with a bit of XC for a while so I'm not slow but I'm definitely not up to the pace of proper roadies. I jumped onto a guys wheel yesterday just after an intersection who I could keep up with when drafting off of him/with someone to chase. I know when riding in a bunch it's appropriate to share time on the front so everyone suffers but there is no way I could have kept the same pace if I had been leading, he was riding roughly 5km/hr faster than I normally do by myself on the same section. I didn't want to pull in front just to slow him down but is just sitting on his wheel for the 6km that we went the same way ok or still a dick move?
