It is my first season...I have 21 cyclists and I am entering races.
Is it better to try and use the same cyclists so they get up the leader board or is it better to rotate them so they stay fitter?
My first race my guy came 2nd :-)
I did set him a slightly higher effort rate at 80% and his fitness slipped to 85%.
This is a 3 race tour...
What is the best tactics over a several stage or race tour? Is it better to try and use your cyclists in turn to win stages which will affect their overall chances or is it better to keep at 70% until the last stage and then go for it!
With the best cyclists in mind is it better to leave them at 70% so they can race in all or most races?
Please help me by giving me some simple outline tactics....
