Sounds like you had a bit of sensible ish fun Jamie g & i'd be up for this type of stuff where it doesnt get too serious.like an impromptu rideout...this type of stuff is ace & worth stopping and having a yatter soon after.
If i catch up a bike that's riding smoothly then ill drop back to give him/her a bit of space & happily follow which is enjoyable, if they're only just going slower than me i'd have to really give it some to get passed them which is a bit pointless because it'll mess up my mojo & the pressure is instantly on for me to perform from then on.
If they're going moderately slower then i'd probably pass them but not on a corner or anything as personally i see that as a little insulting like jumping in on wave while surfing but that's just me.
I just wouldnt want anyone being frantic behind me because if im cornering i want to be relaxed and looking ahead round the corners & not always in my mirrors at someone i dont trust.

Easiest way to go fast........don't buy a blue bike
