The Giants are great race bikes. Here's Uncle Pcad's #1 Paceline Survival Tip: GUARD YOUR FRONT WHEEL. If you touch the wheel in front of you, 95% of the time YOU will crash, not the guy ahead of you. And he can't see where you are, so you have to focus on NEVER TOUCHING WHEELS. I've been doing this for 20+ years, never touched wheels in a race or fast group ride, I know other guys (some very experienced) who seem to have a penchant for doing this. It never ends well.
If you just remember this and practice it (FOCUS) you reduce your chances of causing a crash tremendously. But it is 100% your responsibility to guard that front wheel. Drill that into your brain kid.
