Re: Best way to lead de breakaway??
Breaking away is easy, staying away is the hard part. I tried it twice, felt easy to get away but I soon realised I wasn't strong enough to stay out by myself. It was fun trying.
Jumping on the back of 2 or 3 others who are breaking away is probably an easier way to go about it. In a nutshell, ride faster than the rest of the pack and try and take them by surprise.

Re: Best way to lead de breakaway??
emp it depends on the race situation and on the riders you are in the breakaway with. Anyway, usually making double-line is a good choice (and, most important, it reduces slowing wind effects); but if the escapees have different capabilities, a single-line is preferrable (a stronger rider will pull the breakaway for more TIME, not faster). If you're weak, you just move on the front for 3-4 seconds, like in a double-line situation.
