Race Pace and Beyond

Another observation.
Dun push beyond own race pace.
This weakness is exposed during my Eastern Ride.
With a chance to catch up with the front group, I went down to my dropbars.
The increase in speed is sweet but short lived and I lost that single chance of closing the gap.

The drop in pace after that allows some riders from the second group to overtake me.
Thanks to a traffic light, I manage to recover and regain some placings.

Congratulations to you for being able to use the aerobar more than just a aero drink bottle holder, cheers.
