Great that someone pulled off a race of this caliper in Lawrenceburg! Hope all had fun. Sadly, seemingly more racers than spectators. Born and raised Hoosier here, welcome to our world...
Holy smokes, that was a wild ending! Dude, Ferg is a frickin beast! Him and Caleb were on one heck of a run. When Ferg told his plan to Caleb about "trying to get across", was he just referring to catching and trying to lap the peloton, or what? I didn't quite follow. Another thing I wondered about. How did your team mates know to fall back and wait for him to come around? Are there support team members around the track relaying info? Surely, that wasn't coincidence. Sorry for all the questions all the time Drew. I appreciate your time answering them. Take care Mr. Drew.
For sure. Me and the team director were on the sidelines giving info and time gaps. And they could probably see the lead moto behind the peloton as well.
Not even just during a race. Sometimes I'm riding with others and I know a few people who are soft-spoken AND they never raise their talking volume and I have to constantly say "sorry, what'd you say?" 🤣. Meanwhile, I have a loud voice and I raise my voice while on the bike so people can always hear me very clearly and I do that because I think it's thoughtful to do so 🤷😅 I've been seeing Ferg at Intelligentsia through Will Hardin's videos haha. Talented racer, that Ferg 👊 And great control of the last 5 laps by Roadhouse lead-out! Great communication by Ferg. And FIB rider almost took out Ferg and then the two FIB riders almost take each other out (and others behind)... 😬
It’s hard to tell in the video but it looks like the last roadhouse leadout guy purposely cuts in early in turn 3 at 16:35 to block the FIB guys. I understand trying to protect the inside but it seems like he left it open and made a dangerous move to close it at the last second. Thoughts?
