entering my first race ever. im in a club that has their own rr but its a friendly rr not a real one. i tt well but have some trouble in the rr. tt i have won and came in 2nd 13 seconds behind a cat 2 rider. but, in the rr im not as good. i have a tendancy to take longer pulls than i should, am not as tight in turns as the rest of the pace line, have a tendency to shoot out of the pace line on climbs, and when i take the lead.
is this stuff going to heavily affect me in the crit im doing? know the turning will be a problem but is there a paceline thing going or does it move as a group? if i have a lot of energy toawrds the last few laps and know the going much slower than what im capable of should i break away???
