BarHugger Posted December 3, 2015 Share Wondering if GU is on a single speed?That would put him at a non competitive "advantage".........more like suicide..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarHugger Posted December 3, 2015 Share What would the strategy be? Sleep or not????Just an hour lie down can reinvigorate........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarHugger Posted December 3, 2015 Share I only got a SS !! Does this mean I should rather skip this race ? Go for it.....by all means......I wish I had the courage to ride a SS.....but it certainly won't get me a win......even if I could...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMHO as a Bar-One collector by bicycle every Sunday.......this Chris is riding a clever race....he will have a very good idea by now how strong the others around him are......he rides and gets a good gap on those whom he considers to be contenders.......he will also have a very good idea what pace they are moving at as well.....get a big enough buffer.....catch a lie down and set the alarm just within the time buffer he has built up....start again relatively" freshish" and be competitive......but all hell can break loose when the body breaks down.....

His biggest weakness though is often mechanical breakdowns. If his bike can hold together, I'm quite sure his mind and body will follow suit.
