Road Bike Racing - Racing Tactics

I have discovered that most cycling books focus only on training. However, as I get more and more into racing I find that I need some guidance on the tactical nuances (spelling?). Has anyone read a good book on the subject or stumbled across a good web site? If not, I would love to here everyone's personal tactics...

Cheers and thanks in advance

haven't tried this while cycling, I actually learned it while running crosscountry...but, it helped to get me thinking, too...

A coach told me once, to do a hop-skip-jump after reaching the top of a hill, because it resets your stride. (The tendency otherwise, is that people run up a hill and then continue with that smaller stride)

A runner told me, when there is a bend in the woods...accelerate to increase your distance between you and the opponent behind you. Not only is he unable to see your accelerating, but the psychological effect of you being Further Away may wear at him.

Lance's book suggests friendliness as a tactic, because the person you help now may help you later.

Another tactic, the inverse of the above, is knowing that an angry opponent may not think as clearly...and may spend his energy when he shouldn't be.

I'm not a racer (yet :)), I'm just imagining.

Actually, now that I think about it, the ideas above are strategic in nature. Tactics might be:
~knowing when to draft and when to break away
~using the weather and terrain. Choosing your tire width and tread based on the road conditions. If puddles disguise the road, you could watch someone else go through the area first. Awareness that water may slow your braking ability. Wind: position someone between you and the direction the wind is coming from. Aero wheels or climbing wheels? Gearing for this race?
~using your water and food. Be aware of your sweating, and the moisture/dryness of your lips. Camelbak or bottles? Powerbar or power gel?

There is an excellent old standby book. It was written by Eddie B. A former Polish and American Cycling Coach. Great book for understanding the basics of cycling from the ground up.
If you can't find a copy anymore check online as Eddie B runs cycling camps. You may be able to get a copy if you contact him.
Good Luck!

I think I have the book you're talking about- the one with the blurry picture of the cyclists on the cover?
