…how many people you pass on your ride? Heheh, I know I can’t be the only one! Gramma’s, kids on Big Wheels, doesn’t matter. They all add to the total! I particularly savior passing groups and pacelines. Hell, that is almost as good as eating Buffalo Wings!
I only keep track of people that pass me (pass and stay ahead until the run), and last season it was 4. This does not include the Muskoka long course where I crashed and required a hospital visit to scrub my wounds. This was over 3 sprints, an olly and a HIM.

Who has time to count the number of people you’re passing? I’m too busy racing cars.
No but I do count how many dead squirrles I pass. After the ride my wife and I compare our numbers and types of roadkill. She’ll say " Did you catch toe bloated opossum on Danville Blvd?" And I’ll answer “yeah, and how about that squirrel on Diablo Rd who was pancaked into the pavement?”

I will let you know when I see someone else in rural Nebraska!!
Not when I cycle, but I definitely keep track of how many people I pass when I run!
No but when me and a few buddies (Never more then 4 of us and usually only 2.) ride and we see a biker or group of bikers ahead we will take turns to see who can get there faster to them. One at a time no drafting off each other. Pure breakaways. We call the riders rabbits. We are never rude and always say hi and nice bike. A few times riders saw us coming and poured it on. But knock on wood haven’t not caught one yet. Been caught back up to and rode with them till courses parted. butAll in good fun. We do it basically as a training exercise. It starts as soon as rabbit is in sight. Could be a 1/2 mile but almost always a mile or two. By the way I had five onion rings at Red Robin tonight went out for a run (5miler) and was letting gas out like gramma on xmas eve. Been long since i had some fried food. Not that you needed to know this but since you mentioned bwings.
