Well that sucks to hear, that the field caught me by doodling along. Hack said they were chasing; from where I was it looked like they were doodling along for the first lap but picked it up considerably after that.
Looking at my file, I averaged 330 watts the first 8 minutes, a bit over 25 mph. Average race speed was 25.5 mph, so I guess it was doomed. When the 2 juniors joined, the break actually got worse. I think we slowed down just trying to get organized lol. They were trying to continuously rotate rather than take turns pulling, and rotating wasn't working well with 4 guys that couldn't stick together and a corner every 30 seconds.
The first guy that joined kept urging me to go faster, but he wasn't pulling any faster than I was. If only I had Fudgy's ftp...
