I'm gunning for the stampede road race. I think we'll have to come up with something halfway decent strategically, 8 STs and 1 CM off the front will likely be shot down in short order.<BR/><BR/>I think one nite this week should be spent on lead outs in case we can't make a break.RobWoolleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03330486496972614962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7054413092536573619.post-59676935076841822182007-05-28T12:50:00.000-07:002007-05-28T12:50:00.000-07:00Ernie, that is my plan.

It should be a race of attrition for your pack with you guys left standing.<BR/><BR/>There are no huge climbs or big decents on this course, however there are a few serious rollers. I would run a 12-21 for my race, but you guys could definately run an 11-21 since your race is shorter and you don't have to conserve your legs...just crush people.<BR/><BR/>The finish is a long gradual decent, a right 90 degree corner, then about a 1.2km uphill roller. You guys will either have to have created a select group by then or have your acts together to control it so you can place a dude in first position.<BR/><BR/>TrevTrevhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08667282748460045123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7054413092536573619.post-17321006730052395332007-05-28T11:51:00.000-07:002007-05-28T11:51:00.000-07:00I'm down with whatever strategy you guys decide.

I have some good ideas that should play on all your strengths.<BR/><BR/>I won't be there on Tues as Alex and I are taking a novice racing course at the Glenmore Velodrome so we can hit it on track bikes!<BR/><BR/>If at all possible, come on Thursday out of the two days and we'll talk strategy. I think with Kirk and Carl and Rob, SpeedTheory has a great chance of placing some serious people in the top 10.<BR/><BR/><BR/>TrevTrevhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08667282748460045123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7054413092536573619.post-53348809587575042572007-05-27T16:06:00.000-07:002007-05-27T16:06:00.000-07:00Trev,I can probably make the Tuesday ride, Thursda...Trev,<BR/><BR/>I can probably make the Tuesday ride, Thursday will be tough, how long are you planning for Tuesday? I am in a rest week so volume is down.<BR/><BR/>Another question I believe the Ernie, Alex and I can all move up with strong finishes at Pigeon, any thoughts on an effective strategy to get the 3 of us in a breakaway?<BR/><BR/>Michaelmgodfreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06599346490557797555noreply@blogger.com
