We counted them out (17) and counted them back (5) Confused
4 in the finishing gallop and 2 to contest the sprint
So another successful C/Gang production Rolling Eyes
For me Twas more like cling-on gang again. Shocked

Some people didn't seem totally clued up about the whole chaingang concept they either wanted to sit on all night or **** through swing over and then keep pressing on. Either that or ride 2nd wheel and just sit there and not take the line through to get it going again.

It's not really that complicated is it ?

Don't know anything about your particular setup, but they probably just need to learn in a smaller group, before joining a long paceline. Either that, or they're daft.

You couldn't get much smaller than tonights group ( or should that be collection of individuals).

Daft !, No can't be.

If you keep coming through then you won't be in any condition for the all important sprint at the Motorway bridge where the (ego) points are awarded. Simples.
