I see your point. I have plans for testing navigation as well as equipment but replicating race conditions, ie, riding 300km for a bunch of days in a row is pretty difficult IRL.
I never said I was doing drafted race efforts. I've not been in a bunch since November and on the occasions I've been out with friends I make sure to sit on the front as often as possible.
As above - replicating race conditions is difficult because of the type of event. So I'm looking for advice on how to improve my fitness for this type of events in other ways.
@hippy makes a fair point though, I don't have to ride audax with people!

So you want to train for a multi day sleep-deprived, solo ride carrying multi KG of luggage by doing drafted race efforts?
OK.
