Gai, I raced in the crit on Saturday in "F" grade. It was my first crit, & I really enjoyed it. I was shocked at some of the brainless moves made by the younger riders in this grade, & was only too happy to voice my displeasure at the move pulled on you.  The ability to set up a move early, & the thought process of what happens when it all goes to crap from them making a bad decision, is what was missing. A little patience is sometimes needed, but that does not come with youth. That is why I made the comment for them to settle down & stop chopping others to make a spot.

I too am learning, & hope to work my way up through the grades. But I don't see how racing without a brain will get me anywhere.
