I was riding mostly to support my teammate last weekend. My question was always, when do I do work at the front to pull back breaks vs. let them come back on their own.
As for the OP's question, I'ce done some suicidal attacks this year just to work on attacking/testing my ability to sustain an effort off the front. Working on being smarter about when to do it.
