Cyclonauts Plan: Hang out at back and do as little as possible. Ignore breaks. Move up in the final laps. Sprint.

Lap1: Power out of the chicane; fast on the back stretch; slow on finish stretch.
Lap2: Power out of the chicane; fast on the back stretch; slow on finish stretch.
Lap3: Power out of the chicane; fast on the back stretch; slow on finish stretch.
Lap4: Power out of the chicane; fast on the back stretch; slow zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Lap4: zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

.
Lap39: zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Lap40: zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Bell! …Last lap .. holy crap.. back of the group.. no hope.. 25th.

Lesson learned: No lapnapping (is that a word?)

The one time I did this race, I found the hardest part was overcoming the boredom that made me want to quit. Not just the race; the whole sport.
