September 1982, a month before the Dumbarton Bridge opened. Debbie and I shared a house with Jeannie and Rich Davidson. He was a cat 3 racer, she was a former gymnast. Jeannie weighed all of 95 pounds but it was on a memorable 35 mile Calaveras loop with Jeannie and Rich that I learned how to draft. And, 95 pound Jeannie Davidson (left in picture) was my teacher as we returned to Fremont into a huge headwind. She coached me on the return home. Thank you Jeannie!
Safely and efficiently drafting other cyclists separates racers from riders. When did you learn how to draft another cyclist?
