valid point...you'll be on the course with the cat 2 racers in the clydes class. i'm thinking that you may not end up "racing" anyone there.
think of it as you'll be able to go harder for the 12 miles, rather than saving up for the last lap. i can guarantee you will be mixing it up
in cat 3 - either catching people, or holding them off.
i dont race@sarcaro should be able to help you out here. . .
Registered for Cat 3, screw it...lol
Or do I run them off into a tree??LOL
Stay behind one long enough and he will OTB and go off trail so don't really need to "pass" anyone.what exactly do you guys do on an OOS ride?!
I have no clue on race etiquette either...Do I allow people to pass? Or do I run them off into a tree??LOL
Call out “ON YOUR LEFT”’just before you shoulder check them off the trail.
half of those guys are already off the trails and smacked into trees...what exactly do you guys do on an OOS ride?!
not so much passing as riding over..Stay behind one long enough and he will OTB and go off trail so don't really need to "pass" anyone.
If riding over... please avoid the crotch areanot so much passing as riding over..
yeah... don't be a dick and block a racer who isn't in your group
if i'm passing a kid, i let myself be known REALLY well... usually "i'm going to pass on your left when it's clear" and then repeat "passing on your left" kind of thing...
and endurance racer or ride leader will usually say "leader/endurance coming thru" ... let them go!
i've only had to say NO! WAIT! to one person trying to pass me... and that was because i was about to pass thru a narrow section between two trees... as soon as i got thru it i told him to GO GO GO.
OHHHHH I tried to pass someone once, i asked politely and she told me no......
