Also the talk comments are for the ones...you know who they are. The rider who gets dropped a few laps in before it got really hard who spend the next 2 hours telling everyone how they were "right there" and how if they just hadn't of ridden the "long ride 3 days ago", or how they messed up their warmup that they would have been fine. "Looks like you guys slowed down too right after I left." "I totally could have been there in the sprint if that guy from ____ wouldn't have cut me off in the 3rd corner of the race"
No...you wouldn't have been there. You did better than me as I didn't have a number on today but you were still going to get chewed up. Embrace it and learn from it.
