probably better than 4 watts/kg ftp ... but then again I've got a big kg number leading to low w/kg

Try breaks, try sprints, and keep trying them. Try everything, see what works.

This ... race how you want, really there is nothing on the line, so have fun and race hard. If you want to get in the break, try it. I just know I am limited in long range power and fear the break, but have done well in the break. Dunno.
