Also, read the rules on how field passing is done. The process is delineated in the rule box.

The only problem was that when the field did slow down on the back stretch while the 1/2/3 field passed us, a lot of the group was 6 and 7 riders wide with room in between. The field came by us fast and I saw a couple of guys have to grab a ton of brake in order not to cause a crash. Best idea IMO is 2 or 3 wide and as far to the outside as possible. If anybody thinks another idea is better, please share.
