Maybe this i a noob question, but i just need to know
I can win mountain stages once in a while, but it's rearly... So i need to know how I can win them!... Someone says that you have to go with the "right" attack, how can I now which attack is "the right one"
Sorry for my bad English grammar

normally the "right one" is the one in the most important climb. When the 3* favourite attack. Normally i just keep myself in the front of the peloton (not working) and when the race favourites attack i go with them. Then i just keep in their wheels to save some energy to the last 2/1.5 km to win like 1 minute. It's not the fair play way but....

Ok... But something forgot is that, the other favourites seems to be able to attack longer than I can:cry:

they are probably in better form then you.. (they may have peaked their form for this race )
And also the day form can be important. Big difference between -5 and +5 on a climbing stage. |

if we use the TDF as an example, unless your rider is in great form ie high nineties, and has good form on the day the AI will be able to overpower you 9 times out of ten

I don't attack for that reason, I just put my own pace and when they attack they remain behind me or with me.
