I think all things being equal, of the 5 of us I have the worst start ... if I go out too hard I just blow up, so have to measure the start, just enough to latch on the the group but happy to sit at the back until it settles down. I need to practice my starts if the C is as manic as the B group, else I'll struggle to get into the leaders.Well I may be able to cause some trouble if I don’t get caught asleep at the start of the next stage. I only managed to cause myself trouble on Stage 1.
What's this 'sprinting' you're all talking about?Chris my bike bobs around when sprinting, that coupled with rocking too. But you should know that already
It actually does feel more natural with the rocking motion

It is something to exceed 1000w. I guess everyone can do that

Brilliant stuff, will look forward to that 👍
If I had my Bkool trainer still, then yesIt is something to exceed 1000w. I guess everyone can do that
But, on the NEO, at the end of a long hard race? 
Thank feck for that! I don't feel so guilty now moving back down to C rather than making the numbers up in B. A proper B racer steps in

I think the B’s start faster, as we used to start with the A’s in most mixed races. More often than not, I was caught by the top 20 C’s later on, once they had dropped the D’s.

Well, if not all complete the race, we might need a few extras in B. 😜 1 point is better than 0...

My tactic is always to try and stay with the fastest group I can from the start and generally I get dropped on first decent incline. I don't know if I'm actually being stupid and would I be better just staying with a slower group and then have enough in the tank That I wouldn't be dropped by that group and could actually stay with attacks at the end. Should probably experiment...
...but there are no big hills on stage 2 so I'm gonna do the same as always!

The Feltet.dk league ranking has been updated, and the CycleChat B-team is now in 8th spot with 3 points, and the C-team is in 6th spot.
I did wonder how we (B’s) ended up with 11 points, when all we did was complete the race. 🙂 Now the numbers check out, so let’s hope these are the final results for stage 1...

Need to ride with more team tactics. Get the three fast lads to the end.
