I see some guy with NP of 320W /Ave 299W did 1:48 in Cat 3, so 320W TT for 2 hours is slow....#justsaying

What if a team could get 2 or 3 with @Kelson Elena Da Cruzinto a break with perhaps one or 2 others and then leave him on the front of that break (we know he just wants a solid 2 hours at his threshold) and then have one or 2 blockers on the peloton. Is there a team in Cat 3 who has 5 or 6 riders?

Yip. There is, Infinity, there is about 4 good riders but they struggle to keep his wheel and rely on others in the bunch as well. 

If they let him go they won't see him again and will be riding for 2nd or 3rd place. He doesn't surge off the front or attack so it's easier for guys to follow his wheel. 

No one in Cat 3 has the power his has, if they attack its won't last long as he will just close it down.

I wonder what this is relative to weight

Hmmm - makes me wonder if it might not be a better idea for me to take my chances in Cat 2 for the crit in Atlantis or go down to Cat 3 where I think I belong more - or maybe even Cat 4.

You done well in Cat 2. And I think you will be ok on Altantis has its flat but will be faster

The difference between car 2 and 3 in Philly was small. Car 3 rode a fast race while cat2 was slower and longer. I rode cat 3 because the surf was up and I wanted to get to the beach. 😂
