Not too sure for the road race though. I'll watch for replies as I'm in both events with the same position as you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotSoBigBen Posted October 5, 2021 Share Can't be bothered, based on how I'm seeded on whatever they have is how I'll approach the ride ... near the front as fast as my legs can go, near the back maybe the time to take a single speed bike out scotty, Pikey, BigDL and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
