Right, the rules are set up that way but in practice everything takes a backseat to winning. No one is out there to just get race credit and finish in the pack, once its called a race people are...

Well, its a dangerous sport, so there is a chance of injury or totaling your bike. Cycling in general has these risks, so don't think racing isn't that much more dangerous than cycling in general. ...

carpediemracing how much do you weigh? 140s? The numbers don't mean much until we know what that wattage has to drag around the course.

When I say around here, my reference is Redlands / Riverside. LA has about 8 different micro zones of cyclists. Our club used to be active enough (so I was told) that we had teams in many...

My feelings aren't hurt but thanks for the apology. Like I've posted before, this is the third time you've tossed out some minor insult. Maybe your motives are to add to the argument, but it comes...

Typical, you toss out insults than largely agree with what I have said. This is the third time you've pulled this stunt and I've largely ignored them because its unproductive. You'll do anything to...

In many ways the Category model is broken, mixing the 5's with 4's is just one example. Category 5 is supposed to be for racers to learn the craft, but its just treated like any other race.
