If Lance Armstrong made a habit of sitting in and then outsprinting people for whom he had done no work, then he would have found himsef often the victim of crashes long long ago. There is definitely an etiquette to the drafting that goes on in bike racing.
What you did might have been bad form, the issue is clouded by the fact that she took the wrong line. If she had been straight on, then it is defintely bad form to just sit in and then outsprint her at the end and a nice way to earn a kick in the face at the next race.
