Being up at the front there is a lot of commotion that goes on in the races I have been in. People come barrelling up on the inside trying to get to the front and you are still in the pack. The guys in the front cannot get organized to save there life.

My next couple races are road races and I have never done one, but I will be near the front watching what is going on. One of my friends that is a 2 says the pace for a RR is a lot easier than a crit.

You should be able to just follow the wheel in front of you through a turn. Hopefully you will have someone kind like me try and help you out if you do something wrong. Some people like to yell, and that is not right, we are all 5s and learning still.

Three more races and I am up to a 4. Finally I will be racing with teammates and will be able to have someone go with me on a break
