What I've experience here so far, is that most of the 55+ pack is happy with the slower pace, but there are a set of guys who are also happy to chase you down, or to let you dangle off the front for awhile, and then chase you down. The guys know each other pretty, and just don't worry too much about solo breaks. More than one though, and things heat up fast, so it isn't often that a break gets away with 2 or more. My goal this year is to increase the frequency that it happens - just need to find the right partners.
