One rider against an entire peloton trying to snap the elastic and escape with a small group of motivated riders to battle for the victory up the road away from the chaos of the bunch. But how can you make it easier to get away? Hank's here with his pro tips to help you get clear of the peloton next time you line up on the start line of a race.
