I'm 50 and I'll crush you like a velo gnat. If I don't get blown out the back door halfway through the race I mean.

I'm not so sure about c.d.'s suicide move advice, but what the hell, nothing ventured nothing gained. I've gotten like 4 top 5 results in my racing career, and 3 of them involved suicide moves. Twice I got joined by fellow kamakaze pilots and we got away. That's the other side to a what the peloton may consider a suicide move, sometimes you kill them. Generally if you're going to go off alone, it's better to do it late, not early.
