I'm wondering, what is the best way to utilize a riders good downhill-skills? I am asking because I've had some trouble in PCM11. Whenever I'm in a group of, say 3-4 riders, and my guy is far better then any of the others, I can't break away from them. My guy has 80 and they've got just stats around 60-65.
I've tried attacking, but that takes alot of energy, I've also tried dotting him at 95-99, but it doesn't really do anything. |

hmm 90% you keep the distance or even enlarge the gap, but you are losing red and yellow
75% is save, 65% or less you gain energy, yellow and red. if you in a bunch, use keep position button,
If you away with a n opponent with really good downhill guy,81 or so
and your downhill skills are not that great, keep position 90 or even 99% or you will lose contact, specially when he ride 90%

O if you want to get away with a good downhill guy, use dot
Most time arround 90 % effort will do the job, but see my previous post. If he still in your wheel, you have you use 1 or more atcks, to break the chain. after that its easy |

If The descent is steep enough , a real descent , you can go with do 85% and you don't waste much energy and if your good in downhill nobody will go faster than you, even if there is a whole group behind you.
A good way to use descent skill is to attack just before the descent (on the summit) and keep attacking in the descent , really useful when the last climb is 4-5 kilometer of the end. Like the end of Milan San-remo. |
