Was it my lack of competitiveness but I don't recall doing any actual group racing the whole day. Followed the odd wheel but no actual group cycling, taking half laps, rotation and such.
Don't recall anyone making a breakaway solo effort which suggests noone else was riding tactically either.
Next time can we make the make the races a little longer so its not such a sprint fest?
20 lap sprint race qualifier for starters.
I wouldn't totally agree with this, there was pretty nice tactical racing here and there on the track on Sunday.
Tommmmmm had his solo effort in the devil, I tried my best in an surprise solo attack on the final two laps of the points race in the A's and in the B's there was Moden and another forum rider that broke away from the group and gather as much points as they can, plus I think there was definitely a lot of initial solo breaks in the hare and hound race in the A's whilst chasing the other group.
Also this was probably my fault but I think there was some pretty good group riding at the front during the first scratch race to separate the Cat A's and B's.
In regards to longer races, the forum only had 4 hours on the track so do 20 laps just for qualifier might be a little too long, if we want to get a lot more events in that time schedule, (unless the next one you just want only three or four events for just longer distances) hence probably why we had the sprints event, though saying that the only sprint event we have this year was really the keirin and I think maybe you think the event was mainly sprints was because of the minor and major finals of A's and B's.
Overall compared there last year, I think this year's level of racing has definitely improved and was a lot more serious in both men and women.
