RE: First attempt to reach fourth place (ENG/ESP)

in Cyclinglast year

come back with another try! Thank you so much! I noticed you went through my strava with some great tips! I will take more into account the aerodynamics, the tires on my bike are semi knobby, they are not exaggerated and I think that helps me to keep a good pace.

Yup, tires make a huge difference on rolling resistance. Or you can draft behind a car, but I hugely don't recommend doing that. Best way is to train your aero position and keep a comfortable cadence (generally ~90rpm). Just consider that for speeds near or above 40 you may need at least a 36T chainring.
