I saw a couple of roadies descending and pedaling at the same time. They were faster than the car behind them and I was just curious to know if that’s something common.

Edit: I saw this during one of the climbs I did. The climb was 17 miles total and as I was descending, the 2 roadies passed me while pedaling. There was about 12 miles left and I was just surprised that you could pedal to go faster even at 40 mph.
