For haters only how not to get frustrated by negative methods/tactics. I hate racing defensively. But, I understand the mentality. Especially in local events, it is super hard winning when the whole field is racing against you.
That was Chris Horner’s problem in 2004 at the Olympic Trials in Redlands. Nearly the whole field realized how good he was and realized it was his race to lose. So, Jason McCartney rode away and got the spot on the Olympic Road Team.
The key is to not let it rattle you and get frustrated. The other riders can sense that and it just gets worse. One thing is not to show your cards until you plan to play them. Just do your share. Never flex your muscles until you plan to go full tilt. That way, they don’t have anything to answer with. U -NO WHO U R.
