Just had a teammate cross the upgrade points threshold. I expect that he'll be a two much quicker than he became a three. The style of racing will suit him better.
Good point. I actually had a nice, long ride on Saturday.

I don't think the current power that be at upgrading cares much about anything except race wins... which is silly in 4 and 5. Fat guys like me get to move up, while riders with power profiles more suited to 1/2 racing take longer to move up.

If that's going to be the way it goes, they should really change the rules. Or clarify the rules.
