My opinion may differ from some, but here's what I think.
The most important thing in a road race is to hold on to your bike,
hold a straight line, and watch watch is going on all around you.
If you're shoulder to shoulder in a Cat 5 race, hold on to the drops
of your handlebars, and bend your elbows - don't sit up with straight
arms and a sissy grip on the tops of the bars, or you will go down.
So my advice - save some skin, hold on, go straight, don't focus
on the wheel right in front of you.
-Erik

============================================================
I'm thinking of doing my first ever road race (cat 5, old man class) and
was wondering if anyone could give me any helpful hints on road racing. I'm
a decent Mt biker, but this road thing is new to me.
Oh, and now that I road ride as well, do I have to wave at Mt bikers while
I'm on my road bike and wave at road riders while I'm on my Mt bike? Or am I
a "tweener" where I don't have to wave at all....Just wondering.
Ken
