I swear, it's like riders in the D category don't get the whole 'drafting' thing. Any time I went to the front to pull, they'd accelerate to get back in front. So, I sat in as much as possible, and threw in a couple big accelerations, then let them catch me. Then on the last lap as soon as we hit the little climb I went hard, dropped them, let one of them catch me again, and then sprinted for the line and won by 2 seconds.
So you're cherry picking?
