Always keep your head up. You should be looking at what the person in front of you is doing and what's going on a few riders ahead of you so you can anticipate any deceleration/ accelerations and change speeds smoothly. You can tell a lot about what the person in front of you is going to do by watching their back and shoulders. You shouldn't be looking at the wheel of the person in front of you, except maybe an occasional glance.
