Hey Guys.

I was wondering.

I some races like Tour of Qatar etc.
there are heavy crosswinds wich can split the peleton in pieces.

But what amount is seen as a strong wind?
(where there is a good chance for the peleton to break up).

It depends, there are times where i have destroyed a pack at 30 km wind. but mostly 50+ is a brilliant opportunity for annihilating the pack

How do you do it, then? Just send your flat/TT guys in front on 80+ effort relays?

Wait for the signs of echallons forming, and then go hell for leather for about 10 kms, if it doesn't break, stop and wait for another opportunity

But on what effort? Does around 80 sound okay?

Yeah, anywhere between 75 and 90 works, I reccomend that the earlier in the stage you are, the lower effort you use because you may have to drag your small breakaway for the rest of the day if there's a split.

Do you usually always play with the wind icon enabled (on top of each rider's head)? I find the location of this icon a bit annoying.
