Catch breakaway or fast moving group
Catch Breakaway
Catch a breakaway or fast moving group by making a quick decision on:
- putting in the necessary effort at the right moment.
- Fully committing to the effort for the duration
- Properly pacing oneself to successfully execute the chase
Required Skills
The ability to sustain high intensity for the duration needed to bridge up to the group ahead is a prerequisite to catch any fast moving group.
Build the kind of engine required for the effort with prior interval or fartlek training.
If all you ever do is ride at at steady pace, then when an effort above your comfort level is required, your body is not able to produce what is required.
