I'd encourage you to give mass start events a try. You might be pleasantly surprised.

There are rules for how you move on a track that don't exist in crits; no brakes actually makes things safer.
Thank you!
If there is field with 55+ masters women in it, I'll give it a try - perhaps! I have a hard enough time in a crit hanging on to those young 3's and 4's...track might be safer, but I'm sure it's just as hard!
