Crit Q

Crit Q: I'm able to consistenty hold a position in the front 1/3 of the pack, and finish with the front pack, but in 3 out of the last 4 races, the top 5 or 6 finishers jumped in the last 1/4 lap, and I just couldn't join them.
Does this sound like a training issue or a strategy issue? FWIW, on the ride home from the race, I consistently knock out a few PRs and fast hill climbs, so I know I've got the legs to do better, but they just aren't there when I need them.
