yeah thats what i thought, the pace suddenly eased and then carnage.
i think there are enough riders to split now, although i know they wouldnt have been able to get 2 x 20k in if they split the group. my issue is that i am not strong enough to sit out of trouble at the front when a's/b's together and when there is such a huge bunch and you are at the back - you risk getting caught up in a crash.
are all the a/b races run together now? i havent been for a few weeks. not much point having two categories if they always race together is there?
i dunno - lots of strong people in there who arent that great at riding in a bunch, but i guess there is only one way of improving and thats to race - we were all there once.
just real shame so many came down.
