Interesting and there are lots of things that actually become obvious by themselves while racing.
So who shall we have as the Queen?
From pt 1 - [quote]One of the best compliments I could pay a racer is, I could barely see you the whole time and then you were suddenly up in the break. It means that they were somewhere in the middle, protected from the wind, never doing an ounce more work than they had to until it was time for the decisive move.
[quote]Are you chasing someone down? No. Are you setting tempo for a teammate? No. Are you trying to impress a girl on the sidelines (a perfectly legitimate reason by the way)? No? Then get the heck out of the wind!
