It's definitely a drop ride. There is no waiting. If you flat, raise a hand and move over - not for help, but to prevent a crash. The group moves on. There is a group that sweeps - the slower group. The fast group is good about not bolting away from lights. But there are sudden surges and attacks that are definitely intended to blow up the group. The ride is not intended to be friendly - it's a hard training ride.

I may have made the group - and the individuals in the group - out to be something to avoid. It's not. The reason this ride is decades old is that it's really a great ride. It's that stale yellow, when to call it thing I wrestled with Saturday, and have before - on other rides too.
