Skills

The skills are all over the place in the 4 mens and womens and even some 3's.

So what do we do about it? Skills clinics by the teams would help, pre-season is a great time to do this. Or when you get a new license from ACA they should red flag it and offer skills clinics for crits and road races do some practice, teach and learn so there is not so much accordianing in the packs - i watched a bunch of that today and saw one dude fully lock up the rear wheel skid with control while smokin the crap out his rear wheel - you know that burnt rubber smell? Yeah smoked it.

Guys jumpin the yellow to get to the front, only to blow and have everyone behind hit the brakes and then get rear ended, I know it is early, it is something to be thinking about.
